Giga Yacht Large Yacht Notable Fleet Record

Last reviewed: June 1, 2026

Superyacht Guide Awards are editorial ratings based on available information and review criteria.

Eclipse is one of the best-known giga yachts in the world. Built by Blohm+Voss and delivered in 2010, she measures about 162.5 metres and for a period was regarded as the largest private yacht afloat. Her importance comes from more than length. Eclipse helped define the public image of the ultra-large private yacht era, with extensive guest facilities, large crew capacity, helicopter capability and a level of security and privacy associated with the highest tier of private ownership. For Superyacht Guide, Eclipse is a core reference vessel: historically significant, technically substantial and one of the most recognisable large yachts of the 21st century.

Sources, assumptions and methodology

Indicative SYG estimate. Value basis: Length-and-age model using length. Central annual OPEX uses the established 14% of estimated yacht value fallback, adjusted for yacht age where available. Low and high cases reflect utilisation, condition, crewing, fuel, berthing and maintenance uncertainty. Capital reserve is shown separately from routine OPEX. Figures must be replaced or upgraded when reported accounts, invoices, court records or other yacht-specific evidence is available.

Calculation version: SYG-FI-1.0 · Last reviewed: 25 July 2026

Financial figures may include reported expenditure, source-derived calculations and indicative estimates. Estimated figures are not audited accounts, quotations or financial advice.

How to read this history: Superyacht Guide estimates, brokerage asking prices and documented transaction values are stored as separate record types. The first baseline record marks the beginning of permanent Superyacht Guide value-history tracking; the absence of an earlier record does not mean the yacht had no earlier market value or sale history.

Refit planning for Eclipse

Mid-life refit planning

Approximate yacht age

16 years

A structured condition-led review can help identify whether machinery, coatings, electrical systems, interiors or operational systems merit renewal. Age alone is not evidence that work is due.

Age does not prove that this yacht needs a refit, and no refit cost is inferred from its estimated value.
