One can enjoy an abundance of advantages by being the wealthiest athlete in the history of the planet. Michael Jordan sold his basketball team for billions of dollars, along with a residence worth $29 million that he has not sold in nearly a decade and one of the rarest automobiles in the world… The enumeration continues.
A yacht named ‘Joy’, which cost $80 million, was, however, one of the most extravagant single purchases Jordan has ever documented. Moreover, that is not the sole yacht that Jordan possesses. Additionally, he owns a yacht valued at $21 million that bears the moniker “Mr. Terrible.” This choice of name is rather apt, considering the two yachts he owns.
The vessel, which was initially obtained by Jordan in 2016, has a length of 230 feet and an approximate 10 foot outline. It maintains a cruising speed of 12 knots and a maximal speed of 16 knots. Initially observed aboard the yacht, he was en route to the Caribbean island of Saint Barthélemy with a small group of his closest companions. Finally, the superstructure is constructed from aluminum, the decks are crafted from teak wood, and the entire vessel is insulated with glass aluminum—a feature that Bannenberg & Rowell Designs devised specifically for this purpose—to accommodate the changing weather.
Amenities located on the yacht of Michael Jordan
There is a reason why Michael Jordan christened his yacht Joy. His yacht is stocked with everything that could afford him or others pleasure. It features an impressive dining room, five decks, eight cabins, an interior jacuzzi, a movie theater, and a spa. A principal amenity of this vessel is the proprietor’s pavilion. This area houses the penthouse suite, personal office, and terrace with the most breathtaking ocean views of the vessel.
Additionally, if you intend to maintain an active lifestyle while aboard the yacht, it can accommodate you. A fitness center and an indoor basketball facility are also included. In any case, what else would one anticipate from the yacht of arguably the finest basketball player of all time?
Joy undoubtedly incurs substantial expenses in the realm of maintenance. As per Marca, the ship has a crew of approximately 19 individuals on board 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and its maintenance costs $800,000 per week. This yacht is fortunately not reserved solely for Jordan or his family and associates. In fact, Joy is available for weekly rental by anyone. You will only require $840,000!
