Andrey Melnichenko's superyacht at large the the Greek island San Torini at the Agean sea, on September 12, 2009. The Russian billionaire has christened his futuristic superyacht 'A' so nothing can precede it in the list of all-time great vessels. Andrey Melnichenko, 36, has had it custom-built so he and his wife can traverse the world?s oceans in luxury * and cast-iron safety. The extraordinary shape * the handiwork of Philippe Starck, the French interior designer whose work takes in everything from boutique hotels to kitchen appliances * has been likened to both a first world war battleship and a submarine. Launched by the same German company that built the Bismarck, the second world war battleship, the 390ft steel yacht is like a modern-day dreadnought. The razor-sharp bow will cut through Arctic ice. Clamshell doors at the rear open upwards to release two 30ft speedboats, ideal tenders for the Mediterranean.
