Still looking for a nice place to spend your summer vacation? The former yacht of Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen can be rented for an expected million euros per week.
Microsoft wasn’t just founded by Bill Gates. It was a collaboration with Paul Allen. But where Gates still happily walks on this planet, Allen is about to die in 2018. The co-founder of Microsoft was not so modest and liked to leave it wide. For example with his bizarre yacht of 126 meters long.
Since Paul Allen has not been with us for a while and the family was not using the yacht it was sold. The anonymous buyer has The Guardian paid no less than 235 million euros for the used yacht. A huge amount, but also a bit of an investment. For example, it is intended that the huge battleship will be rented out.
Paul Allen yacht for rent
You can expect to rent this superyacht for a million euros a week. An exact price has not been disclosed, but these are the ‘normal’ rental rates for such yachts. An eccentric amount, but then you are on one of the largest yachts in the world. And compared to the purchase price, the rental price is not that bad, isn’t it? Wealthy people swimming in the money will undoubtedly want to relax for a week on this huge thing. In fact, I think you need a week to discover all facets of this Paul Allen yacht.
