The Le Grand Bleu is with a length of 114 meters one of the largest private yachts in the world. In the list of the longest motor yacht she is ranked 21

The yacht was designed by Kusch Yachts and built by the German Vulkan yard. It was completed in 1996. Initially it belonged to the American Paul Allen, but then re-sold to Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich in 2002. This had rebuilt the luxury yacht of the Kiel HDW according to his ideas. In 2006 he sold the yacht to his friend and business partner Yevgeny Schwidler.

The ship is powered by two 2648 kW (3600 hp) Wärtsilä engines. Gives details about the inner workings hardly since Abramovich keeps a low profile in terms of his private life. So it should come with a gyro-stabilized cabin with gyro sensors from German production ( iMAR, St. Ingbert ). The designer of the interior design is Terence Disdale. The Le Grand Bleu also leads on board a helicopter, a 23 -meter motor boat, and a mini - submarine. The ship has a crew of 50.
