Venus is one of the most gorgeous yachts in the world and was being built for the owner of Apple Co. Steve Jobs and his family. Although Steve Jobe passed away before he could see the finished product, this 78-meter superyacht is by far one of the coolest products ever built. Built for extreme privacy, Venus is completely covered in tinted glass and is part of the beauty of this absolute unit. This superyacht is equipped with a garage for some of the world's most expensive cars, as well as a Mac computer system integrated into the entirety of the ship, making for high-tech integration easy for anyone to use. Still belonging to Steve Jobs' family, Venus is among the greatest works of art in the yacht industry and will stay that way for a long time.

Venus is undeniably amazing, though it definitely has competition for the top superyacht among the famous and rich, especially this next ship gives it a run for its money.

The Victory has seven decks and six pools, but many other features remain unknown due to the owner's private lifestyle, and only a few lucky guests will know the pure luxury on board the Victory. At 459 feet in length, it is one of the ten largest superyachts in the world and took a whopping five years to complete.

There is a good reason why this unit is almost always found in the top ten of any yacht ranking list, and it has to do with the incredible power, luxurious amenities, and overall perfect design of such a beautiful creation. It is not uncommon for ships like Victory to be without top-of-the-world guests and the absolute best food and beverage accommodations and entertainment.
