A Closer Look at the $300 Million Superyacht Al Said

Have you ever wished that you could own your very own superyacht? Well, how about one that's the 7th longest yacht in the entire world and accommodates more guests and even many more professional crew members than almost all of the other yachts in the world ? In fact, you might not even have enough friends on earth to fill this massive yacht! And, all you have to be is a Sultan to be able to afford it! Then, you could travel the oceans of the world in comfort and luxury and never have to go back home and live the regular life! Hmm, we can certainly dream about the good life, can't we?

Built by Lurssen

According to Superyacht Times , the motor yacht Al Said was ordered in 2006 and then it was built by Lurssen . Her code name at that time was Project Sunflower during her construction. Once completed, she was named after her very wealthy owner. She's one of the largest superyachts in the world , especially when measured by volume. She accommodates an amazing 65 guests plus 140 crew members and was designed by world-renowned yacht designer, Espen Oeino. She's powered by two MTU marine engines that create a total of 22,000 horsepower for a cruising speed of 14 knots.

Delivered in 2008

The superyacht Al Said was delivered in 2008 to the Sultan of Oman. She replaced a smaller mega- yacht that, at one time, had the exact same name. At an amazing 155m, she has six exceptionally large decks and both her exterior and interior are quite striking. They were designed by Espen Oeino International. That's actually the same company responsible for the designing of the 127m mega-yacht called Octopus.

A Steel Hull & 25 Knots to Boot!

The Al Said sports a steel hull and an aluminum superstructure. She has a beam of 24m (78.74ft) and a draft of 5.20m (17.06ft). This is a superyacht that's capable of doing 25 knots flat-out and also has a cruising speed of 22 knots.

Lots of Guests & Crew

According to reports, this superyacht is capable of accommodating up to 70 guests and 154 professional crewmembers for ensuring the ultimate in relaxed luxury yacht experiences for all guests onboard. She also features a massive concert room that accommodates an entire 50-piece orchestra! Now, that's something you probably won't find on any other superyacht!

Based in Muscat

According to the Robb Report , the majority of the time, the Royal Yacht Al Said will be based in the Sultan Qaboos Port, which is near Muscat. When the royal yacht does travel anywhere, she does so with an escort and that escort is the Oman Navy. Now, how many yachts do you know of that have their own royal Navy escort?

About the Owner

The owner of the Royal Yacht Al Said is the Sultan of Oman (and all of its Dependencies) after rising to power by overthrowing his own father, Said bin Taimur during a 1970 palace coup. (What a nice guy, right?) He's also the 14th-generation descendant of the Al Bu Sa'idi dynasty's founder. Oman (aka the Sultanate of Oman) is, of course, an Arab country in the Middle East that lies on the southeastern coast of the Arabian Peninsula as well as on the Persian Gulf. As you may have already guessed, it's an absolute monarchy, which was once known as the Sultanate of Muscat and Oman. It also once included portions of what is now the United Arab Emirates and certain parts of Pakistan. This also a country with very close ties to Saudi Arabia, often functioning as an impartial mediator between Saudi Arabia and countries like Qatar and Iran or Qatar. In addition, the country has a Royal Military Academy that is really highly-regarded.

The Sultan's full title is Sultan Qaboos bin Said Al Said and, he also owns eight palaces and three luxury yachts. Besides the Al Said, he also owns the Loalat al Behar and the Fulk al Salamah. The Loaloat Al Behar was the prior Al Said, which was a gift to the Ministry of Tourism of Oman and has been recently refitted and repainted. The Fulk Al Salamah Yacht functions as a support vessel for the Royal Yacht Al Said. She was built in Italy at the Mariotti shipyard and delivered in 2016. At 150 meter (492 ft) she's actually almost as big overall as the yacht Al Said and one of the largest superyachts worldwide.

Other Royal Toys

Sultan Qaboos bin Said al Said is also the owner of a Boeing 747 private jumbo jet, (registration A4O-OMN), which was built in 2001. In addition, he owns another 747 that was built in 2012 (registration A4O-HMS). However, since it wasn't painted with the ‘royal colors’, he mainly uses his older jet.

Sultan of Oman- Net Worth

Sultan Qaboos al Said's net worth is estimated to be in excess of US$ 1 billion. (Not bad.)

Not For Charter

This yacht is not for charter. However, if you would like to see this yacht's current location in real-time, just go to this site. That way, you could live vicariously thru the Sultan, his guests, and crew members. Sure, it would be better to be there but tracking its location just might have to suffice for today.

Motor Yacht

Al Said is a 155m motor yacht which was custom built in 2008 by Lurssen Yachts in Bremen. This magnificent yacht features exterior styling by Espen Oeino, with interior design by Redman Whitely Dixon.

Like most royal superyachts, little is known about Al Said, a giant mega yacht formerly codenamed "Project Sunflower". She was delivered to the Sultan of Oman in 2008 as a replacement for a smaller mega yacht of the same name.

At a stunning 155m, Al Said consists of six large decks and features striking exterior and interior design by Espen Oeino International, the same company that designed the stunning 127m mega yacht Octopus. 

Al Said has a steel hull and aluminium superstructure with a beam of 24m (78.74ft) and a 5.20m (17.06ft) draft. The mega yacht is capable of 25 knots flat out, with a cruising speed of 22 knots.

According to reports, Al Said is said to accommodate as many as 70 guests and 154 professional crew, as well as featuring a concert room capable of accommodating a 50 piece orchestra. She is also capable of carrying up to 154 crew onboard to ensure a relaxed luxury yacht experience.

There are few contemporary city destinations for luxury yacht charters that can compete with the majesty and mystery of Oman, a country that celebrates its past, looks to its future and offers visitors a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Visit landmarks and museums, explore the local markets known as souks or dance the night away in the roaring Muscat nightclub scene.

When travelling in the Middle East , Oman and the UAE are particularly popular to visit during the late autumn and early winter months, when the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix ends the Formula One racing calendar for the year. Before and after the event (where superyachts can overlook the track from a berth at the Yas Marina), luxury yacht charters often take place within the region and also cruise to Indian Ocean destinations such as the Maldives and Seychelles .

The sprawling Oman coastline has plenty of bays that make perfect anchorages and provide your group with your own private beach. Pull out the latest motorised water toys or take your time with the kayaks and snorkelling gear for an up-close experience with the dolphins that leap through these seas.

Oman’s striking contrasts in its natural surroundings will also appeal to nature lovers and thrill seekers; the Wahiba Sands to the south can be navigated in a 4x4, on camel or surfed down at speed for an adrenaline rush the whole family can experience.

Farther up the coast near Muscat, painters and photographers will find the quintessential desert canyon in Wadi Shab. Here, the stream is lined with palm trees and the blue of the sky is mirrored in the water in stark contrast to the towering pale brown cliffs.

Holiday makers looking to leave the coast and head inland for a day should include in their itinerary the Al Jabal Al Akhdar, a spectacular terrace made from mostly limestone mountains and used for agriculture. This peaceful retreat has also been a site of discovery in recent years where 6,000 year-old rock art sites have been uncovered.

On the way back to Muscat, visit Nizwa for some shopping in the local souk and a tour of the 17th Century fort built with secret shafts, false doors and maze-like hallways and rooms that will entertain groups of all ages.

If your luxury charter yacht doesn't have spa facilities available on board, there's still the chance for some serene indulgence at one of the many lavish spas in Muscat. Ranging from contemporary interiors to the traditional and atmospheric, spending a couple of hours being pampered can be just as memorable as rolling down the slopes of the Wahiba Sands.

See the more modern side of Muscat and get in some high-end shopping at the city centre, where there are almost 150 shops to choose from selling fashion, jewellery, homeware, the latest technology and art and antiques.

The Muttrah Souq is a treasure hunter's paradise and clothing, silverware, frankincense, lanterns both old and new make for a vibrant visual delight and excellent souvenirs of your visit.

Modern in outlook, Oman also has a bustling night life for holiday makers on a luxury yacht charter to enjoy. Muscat in particular has plenty of bars, clubs and restaurants if you ever become tired of hosting your own spectacular celebrations aboard your superyacht.

Observe everyday life almost unchanged along the Muscat seafront, where local fishing ships head out in the morning and return for lunch out of the midday sun. Step out of the heat yourselves for a tour of the fossils in the Natural History Museum, then visit the architecturally impressive Royal Opera House for a vivid live performance of some of the most internationally acclaimed musical and theatrical acts currently on show.

Bait Al Zubair is a private family-owned museum in Muscat that opened its doors to the public in 1998 and offers comprehensive insight into past life in Oman and contains coins, antique maps, clothing, swords, stamps and furniture. The art wing contains over 400 pieces and acts as a venue for local and international artists to display their works during exhibitions throughout the year.

Saving the best for last, the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque is not to be missed: The pure white exterior is made up of 300,000 tonnes of Indian sandstone expertly crafted into arches, minarets and domes. The ornate and colourful interior is decorated with a Persian rug the size of a football pitch that took three years to make and was sewn together by three expert seamstresses. Above, 1,100 lamps make up the glittering chandelier while glass-stained windows in the dome compete for your attention.

However large and mixed your charter group, Oman has something to please everyone and combines the best of outdoor excitement with thousands of years of history and culture from local and international sources. Muscat in particular is a cosmopolitan delight that should be added to any itinerary taking place in the region.
