One of those is The Eclipse, which cost $700 million to build and was once the biggest in the world. Like other Russian oligarchs, Roman Abramovich had seemingly scrambled to avoid sanctions and that included quickly moving his superyachts to more friendly waters. Abramovich's 553-foot-long flagship is The Eclipse, estimated to have cost $700 million when built. After sanctions were initially dropped by the UK against Abramovich following the Russian invasion of Ukraine, his second "smaller" $600 million superyacht, Solaris, left Barcelona, Spain, and moved to Montenegro. While the superyacht Eclipse was photographed in Turkish waters in early August, it was once docked at Manhattan's Pier 90 and Robert Johnson was able to get some pictures.
