Ritzy Charters have revealed a list of the 10 most expensive yachts afloat — and the top three are worth a whopping $1.29 billion combined, exceeding the GDP of some smaller countries.“Luxury yachts are more than just a symbol of wealth; they not only provide incredibly gorgeous views but a level of privacy to those onboard who want a sense of relaxation that you can’t get from anywhere other than chartering across oceans,” a spokesperson for the company said in a statement.Number one on the list is media magnate David Geffen’s The Rising Sun, worth a jaw-dropping $590 million.Originally owned by tech mogul Larry Ellison, the superyacht cost an estimated $200 million to build back in 2004.

The classy craft measures more than 452 feet long and features a basketball court and a wine cellar — even a cinema.Geffen purchased the vessel — which holds 18 guests and 55 crew members in its 82 rooms — in 2010.Next on the list is the Koru, owned by none other than Amazon founder Jeff Bezos.The behemoth, triple-masted yacht — reportedly worth an impressive $500 million — is the largest billionaire yacht that can venture in the high seas by sail power only.It features a pool, hot tub, bars, multiple dining spaces and a masthead modeled after the mogul’s fiancee, Lauren Sanchez.In third place is the Eos, which belongs to fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg and her husband, Barry Diller, who purchased the ship in 2009 for $200 million, Ritzy Charters reports.The 305-foot long superyacht, which features a glass staircase, a jacuzzi and a figurehead of von Furstenberg herself, accommodates up to 14 travelers.The $120 million Venus, owned by Steve Jobs’ widow Laurene Powell, comes in fourth, measuring in at 225 feet.In fifth is Sean.
