Michael Jordan’s Alleged $115,000,000 Yacht Revisited After Recent Spotting in Monaco

Sailing off the European islands hosting his friends family, battling it out at the fishing tournament in North Carolina, and a momentary landing in Monaco. Michael Jordan had his summer of 2024 sorted out for him. But seems like a little trip around with his wife Yvette Prieto, enjoying the luxuries, hasn’t come to a hold just yet.

The Chicago Bulls legend was recently spotted in Monaco with his wife. In the pictures now viral on social media, he was present at the Stade Louis-II to watch Monaco beat Barcelona in the Champions League. He made the news for having the fans concerned over looking ill. The last time he was in the country was early in August. He had captured quite a few eyes then too. But only for his mode of arrival.

Michael Jordan’s newest addition to his luxurious Assets

Back in early August, Jordan was seen getting off a 74.5 m Super Yacht costing $115,000,000. Jordan reportedly purchased it in 2024 from a British billionaire and founder of the Travelex Group, Llyod Dorfman. However, the latter had initially set the price of the yacht at $137,000,000, and Jordan seemed to have clinched a pretty good deal. But who made the yacht?

It was built by a yacht builder named Abeking & Rasmussen in Germany in 2018. The yacht was solely made for the British billionaire and initially had the name “Elandess“. The superyacht has a beam of 12.8 m and a volume of 2065 GT. It can go at a pretty amazing speed of about 16kn as it is powered by two Caterpillar Inc engines. Most interestingly, the interior was solely designed according to the needs of Dorfman by the designer Harrison Eidsgaard. The superyacht is believed to accommodate 12 guests along with a crew of 24 people. But the features of the superyacht don’t end here.

It has one of the most unique features that most of the yachts in today’s world don’t have: a Neptune Lounge, which is similar to the Nemo Lounge in the boat “Savannah“. The concept of this Neptune Lounge is that it features an underwater observation room. Such types of features led the Elandess to win four awards at the Boat International Design & Innovation Awards in 2018.

When His Airness had got his hands on the superyacht, the name was changed to “M’BRACE.” However, this isn’t only insanely expensive that the Chciago Bulls legend owns. The former NBA legend also has a fully custom $61.5 million Gulfstream G550 Private Jet, his Chicago Mansion, which is priced at $14.9 million, his 226-acre golf course by the name Grove XXIII, and even a huge collection of supercars.

While some may criticize his luxurious lifestyle, it is clear that he has reached a level of success that only a few can match.

Another part of Michael Jordan’s fleet “The Joy“

Yet another inclusion in Jordan’s yatch collection would be “The Joy“. This vessel is more known to the public world than its larger counterpart. However, there’s a small twist to it.

The original owner of “The Joy” is an Indian Businessman by the name of Sameer Gehlaut but most of the time the boat is chartered by Jordan for his private parties or vacations. Compared to “M’BRACE” this yacht is a little bit smaller in size, 70 m in length. But that doesn’t mean it has less facilities. Winter gardens and a beach club that transforms into a disco, a big pool, and BBQ area, a cutting-edge gym, and a spa center are among the amenities available on the boat, each of which can accommodate up to 12 people.

The name “The Joy” itself suggests that this yacht is a source of pleasure and relaxation for Jordan. Growth indeed for someone scared of the waters.
