Diese Megayacht wird monatelang in Bremerhaven bleiben
Schon ein imposanter Anblick: Die Megayacht „Octopus“ ist am Mittwoch in Bremerhaven angekommen. Mittlerweile soll sie einem schwedischen Milliardär gehören, der die Yacht für eine riesige Summe kaufte.
Megayacht erreicht Bremerhaven
Die Megayacht „Octopus“ ist am Mittwoch bei der Lloyd Werft eingetroffen - angeblich für einen monatelangen Umbau. Die Werft äußert sich nicht, wie üblich in diesem Segment.
Um die „Octopus“ ranken sich viele Legenden
Um die 20 Jahre alte „Octopus“ ranken sich viele Legenden: Microsoft-Mitbegründer Paul Allen ließ sie einst bauen, selbst U-Boote sollen zur Ausstattung gehören.
Schwedischer Milliardär kaufte die Yacht
Nach dem Tod von Allen wurde die Yacht von den Erben verkauft. Neuer Besitzer ist Berichten zufolge der schwedische Milliardär Roger Samuelsson, der sie für rund 285 Millionen Dollar erworben haben soll.

Motor Yacht
Octopus is a 126.20m (414.04ft) motor yacht, custom built in 2003 and last refitted in 2008.
One of the largest and most spectacular examples of a full-fledged yachting and exploration vessel, 126-meter Octopus is equipped with highly sophisticated technology.
Espen Øino International designed the striking exterior with a blue and white hull and superstructure, featuring two helipads and a hangar aft.
The superyacht is capable of exploration and scientific research voyages requiring months at sea. One of her key features is an integrated dock for both the principal 20-meter guest tender and two submarines for exploring marine life, one of which is remotely controlled for reaching greater depths.
Octopus also houses a professional music studio and a grandiose cinema, created by interior designer Jonathan Quinn Barnett.
With a permanent berth in the International Yacht Club Marina in Antibes, this giant is owned by Microsoft Co-Founder Paul Allen. With a full-time crew of 60 including former Navy Seals, maintenance and salaries on the ship cost a rumoured $200 million. Octopus is well-known for hosting famous faces onboard its well-equipped decks, serviced only by world leaders in their fields.

Description
The Northwest Passage, the High Arctic, Antarctica, Papua New Guinea and Challenger Deep -EYOS and the yacht Octopus have a rich history. The EYOS team is proud to have contributed expertise, logistical support, or guidance in these challenging regions during her tenure as a groundbreaking expedition yacht. Now we’re here to help intrepid explorers take Octopus in interesting new directions. Where do you dream of going? What experiences do you imagine? EYOS has the expedition credentials to bring your ‘mission’ to life.
Commissioned by Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen, M/Y Octopus was the largest private yacht ever when it launched in 2003. Today, she remains one of the largest private yachts in the world. Her size, however, is surpassed by the scale of her ambitions. Allen himself famously described her as “less a Bentley than a Range Rover,” because of the state-of-the-art equipment on board.
Now, her 2021 refit preserves her expedition bona fides. She boasts an ice class for polar exploring; two helipads and two helicopter garages. In her garage are 7 tenders including her powerful 54’ Delta ‘tender.’ Discover a fleet of boards, from wake and surfboards, to wind and kite surfers, even electric foil flight boards, for personal forays. And with a glass-bottom observation lounge, and a fully equipped dive center, including an ROV, make the undersea part of every expedition. Her beautiful interiors and superb amenities, with accommodations for up to 12 guests, dial up the quality of life aboard. A stylish new Beach Club opens to the sea. The bridge deck features a heated freshwater swimming pool with a retractable glass floor that raises to deck level for entertaining. Adjacent is a bar, spa pool and an open-air pizza oven.
Octopus has ranged widely. And now under private charter, she will explore the four corners of the world again.
