Biggest Yachts in the World 2026: Every Yacht Over 100 m, Ranked by Length

As of October 2026, the biggest yacht in the world is Azzam: 180.61 m (593 ft) long, built by Lürssen and delivered in 2013 (Boat International). Next come Fulk Al Salamah (164 m) and Eclipse (162.5 m). REV Ocean, at 194.9 m, will be longer but is still under construction (Boat International).

This register lists every delivered yacht with a length overall of at least 100 m that the cited sources give. It is an independent reference, not a broker. Owners are named only where Boat International or another major publication reports them, with the source linked in the table; otherwise the table says Private.

82
Delivered yachts of 100 m or more: 16

How the list works

A yacht is included once it has been delivered and at least one industry source (a shipyard, Boat International, YachtBuyer or a major broker) gives a length overall of 100 m or more. State and royal yachts, support vessels and ships converted into yachts are included; their type is noted in the table. Yachts still under construction are not ranked.

Sources sometimes disagree by a metre or more. Where they do, the list uses the Boat International Superyacht Directory: Koru, for example, is 125.82 m there and in YachtBuyer, but was reported as a 127 m yacht when delivered in 2023. "Delivered" is the year the yacht entered service, not the year she was launched.

There is no official size class above "superyacht". Boat International defines a "large yacht" as one with a load line length of 24 m or more (Boat International). "Gigayacht" is an informal label: YachtBuyer uses it for yachts of 100 m and up, SuperyachtNews uses 90 m, and Boat International says the term is not recognised by BOAT. None of these guides defines "hyperyacht" as a size class.

Coming next, as of December 2025: REV Ocean (194.9 m, due in the fourth quarter of 2026) and the 130 m sailing yacht Vela are among the largest projects expected (Boat International, December 2025), along with Tanzanite (120 m) and Project Elf (113.5 m, due 2028). They join the table once delivered.

Questions

What is the biggest yacht in the world?

Azzam, at 180.61 m (593 ft) length overall. Lürssen delivered her in 2013 (Boat International). No yacht in this register is longer.

Who owns the biggest yacht in the world?

The longest, Azzam (180.61 m), was reportedly built for Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan of Abu Dhabi's royal family (Boat International, February 2025). The largest by gross tonnage, Dilbar (15,917 GT), was delivered in 2016 for the billionaire Alisher Usmanov (Boat International); German authorities impounded her in Hamburg in April 2022 (Fortune). Where a source reports the owner of another yacht, it is in the Reported owner column of the table.

How much does the biggest yacht cost?

Shipyards and owners rarely publish prices. CNBC reported in July 2013 that Azzam cost more than $600 million to build (CNBC). In April 2022 Fortune reported that the US Treasury valued Dilbar at $600–750 million (Fortune), and in March 2022 CNBC estimated that Eclipse was worth $600 million or more (CNBC).

What is the 10% rule for yachts?

A rule of thumb that annual running costs are about 10% of a yacht's purchase price, covering fuel, mooring fees and maintenance (YachtBuyer). Fraser, a broker, says industry benchmarks put annual running costs at 10–15% of a yacht's purchase value (Fraser, April 2026). YachtBuyer says the idea has major shortcomings for larger, crewed or older yachts and can become "at best, obsolete or even misleading", because as a yacht ages its value usually falls while running costs rise (YachtBuyer).

What is the biggest gigayacht in the world?

Also Azzam. "Gigayacht" is not an official class: YachtBuyer uses it for yachts of 100 m and up, SuperyachtNews uses 90 m, and Boat International says it does not recognise the term. On any of these definitions the largest is Azzam, 180.61 m.

What are the biggest yachts currently for sale?

In Boat International's list of 10 August 2026, the longest yachts for sale were Pelorus (114.5 m, Lürssen, 2003), Luna (114.2 m, Lloyd Werft, 2010) and Attessa IV (101.2 m, Hayashikane, 1999). The Boat International Superyacht Directory gives Attessa IV as 100.89 m, which is the figure this register uses (Directory entry). Sale listings change quickly, so treat this as a snapshot.

Which yacht will become the biggest in the world?

REV Ocean, at 194.9 m, was still under construction and expected for delivery in the fourth quarter of 2026 (Boat International, December 2025). Once delivered, she will be longer than Azzam. Until then she is not ranked here.

How big is the biggest sailing yacht?

Sailing Yacht A is 142.81 m long (Nobiskrug, 2017). Only two other sailing yachts in this register exceed 100 m: Koru (125.82 m) and Black Pearl (106.7 m). Sources are linked in the table.

Can you charter one of the biggest yachts?

Some, yes. 9 of the 82 yachts on this list had an active broker charter listing in October 2026 (one was not checked). The longest of them is Octopus (126.2 m), followed by Kismet (122 m) and Breakthrough (118.8 m).

What is a hyperyacht?

There is no agreed definition. None of the size guides from Boat International, YachtBuyer or SuperyachtNews uses "hyperyacht" as a size class. Boat International's report on Lazzarini's Xenos concept (about 40 m, up to 90 knots, 2020) uses it as the name of the private version of that design.
