Want to see the 11th largest private yacht in the world? It is anchored between the Venice Pier and the Marina.

Mega Yacht Serene

"Serene" is owned by Yuri Shefler, the CEO of Moscow based Soyuzplod Import. Soyuzplod is best known for its Stolichnaya and Moskovskaya brands of Vodka.

Mega Yacht Serene

The yacht is more than 440 ft in total length and has close to 50,000 sq. ft of living space. It has seven decks, a hangar and two helicopter landing pads. It also has an "escape" submarine that can dive up to 100 meters deep.

Launched in 2010, the yacht was sold through Harrods of London for $320 million.

My friends were partying (Vodka bombers) on the Serene last night, they said that the boat's main bar had a killer sound system and disco light dance floor with laser beams, but the bar was filled with total douchebags.  Maybe we can add the Serene's bar to our douche bag bar list?

$320 million for a boat?

 

And the skatepark cost $3 million.

 

You could build 100 copies of Venice Skatepark for the price of one boat? Not two or three or ten but ONE HUNDRED SKATEPARKS…

 

Wow.

Maybe it has its own skatepark, nobody has happened upon it yet?

On the topic of the bar filled with total douchebags, were your friends including themselves in that group?

I mean, one is known by the company they keep as well as whom they drink with…

If you like boats, Asahi lives over in the Marina these days. Pretty impressive flybridge ketch at 184 feet. Video of it is here. The internets say it is owned Larry Ellison of Oracle.

It seems that crazy wealth douches.. and absolute crazy wealth douches absolutely.  One of the hallmarks of a douchebag is that they don't know they are one.  Maybe we need a set of jokes to help drive it home… something like "If you drinking in a bar that has an escape sub… you might be a douchebag".

If you live in that financial reality does the term douche still apply? Kinda like if one is poor with obscure style they are sometimes called "tacky" but the same person with money is considered "eccentric". Perhaps obscenely wealthy "douche bags" oughta have their own more genteel designation? How about "pave' suppository"?

Hmm interesting point.. personally I think being a "douchebag" is univeral.. but you maybe be on to something.. maybe colostomy bag is a better term… as I think people enjoy the "bag" part… I know I do.
