The 5 Most Awesome Yachts in the World

By

In our dreams we own a yacht…a super slick yacht with a full crew, a swimming pool and a swish built-in bar. As ultra-luxe as that may sound to us, when we saw the line-up for the upcoming Cannes Yachting Festival, our humble dreams were well and truly put to shame. These yachts are on a whole other level of opulence. Allow us to fuel your daydreams and blow your mind with our selection of the five greatest.

1. Riva Mythos 122

The latest offering from the revered Ferretti group measures a whopping 37.5m long, making it their largest yet. The insanely sleak aluminium design houses a bridge featuring a Jacuzzi and luxury lounge area, an owner’s suite and several guest cabins – this baby will sleep ten people in case you were wondering – all of which can be customized to bespoke specifications. If that wasn’t enough, it has been awarded a Green Plus Yacht award for its progressive environmentally friendly performance, so you can sail guilt-free.

2. Benetti Ocean Paradise

If 37.5m doesn’t quite cut it, the Benetti Ocean Paradise measures an insane 55m in length. One for the style-conscious sailor, the fully customizable design options includes a combination of both transparent and opaque materials in honor of the ocean. There are four guest cabins each featuring a gigantic bathtub and seaviews, a master suite spread across the entire length of the yacht, a central hall and a hidden garage complete with a mooring platform for jet-skis. Yikes…

3. Otam 58ht

OK, here’s one for smooth criminals. Dubbed 58HT M/Y “Crazy Too”, this amazing design features a custom colored black hull and hardtop, a ‘carbon look’ deck, a single cabin, a twin guest room and a master cabin, each with its own en-suite. There’s also a custom wine cellar a master cabin with a full surround sound HD cinema and a M7 satellite dome so you can catch all your fave TV programmes way out on the ocean.

4. Logica 147 by Logica Yachts

The Logica 147 is perfect for those times when you don’t wanna abandon ship for a dip, thanks to the extra large swimming pool located on the main deck. This sleek yacht also sleeps 12, so its perfect for pool party’s on the move, and the MAN engines boast an impressive cruising speed of 14.7 knots.

5. 46 Displacement by Baglietto SP

Did somebody say P A R T Y boat? Look no further than the 46 Displacement. This insane vessel actually features a beach club in the stern. Honestly. As for the rest, you can expect a beautiful Nordic-style interior and two 3512B Caterpillar engines that can reach a maximum speed of 17 knots. Not too shabby right…

Disney is about to make a subscription to Disney+ even more enticing. Reporting suggests that Disney+ will add a new tile to the streaming service beginning in December that has content from ESPN. The company will reportedly add some live sporting events as well as some ESPN shows to Disney+, even for those who don't subscribe to ESPN+.

The change will be implemented on Dec. 4, and the new title will allow people who subscribe to Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+  “full access to all of the ESPN+ sports content they love while inside Disney+, similar to the experience we offer bundle subscribers with Hulu on Disney+,” CEO Bob Iger and CFO Hugh Johnston said in commentary provided with the September quarterly results.

The next Patrick Bateman? 8 actors who could nail the role
Whoever gets the role will be compared to Christian Bale
Christian Bale in American Psycho

Luca Guadagnino has become one of the most effective storytellers in Hollywood in the last decade. Usually focusing on LGBTQ+ films, Guadagnino is creative and willing to take chances that other directors shy away from. He previously made Challengers, Call Me by Your Name, and Bones and All, but perhaps his biggest swing for the fences yet will be a remake of the cult classic circa Y2K, American Psycho. It has been leaked that the Italian filmmaker will reboot the serial killer crime drama about a seemingly normal and incredibly handsome late-20s man who hides horrific murders from his peers.

Christian Bale made Patrick Bateman an iconic character at the turn of the century, and it's a role that is hard to imagine being recast. Now in his 50s, Bale is too old to reprise Bateman and a new actor will be thrust into his big shoes. Allow us to throw our hat in the ring and brainstorm the next American Psycho star.
