    Talking Loadsamoney

    Roman Abramovich's lavish £1.5bn yacht is sent for a refit

    The Chelsea owner's 536ft long £1.5 billion yacht is pictured at Blohm Voss shipbuilders yard in Hamburg, Germany





    It boasts a cinema, two swimming pools, two helicopter pads, around 30 cabins, a mini-submarine, and even a missile defence system

    That's not to mention the conference facilities, children's playroom, beauty salon, dance floor and sauna.

    But Russian oligarch and Chelsea FC owner Roman Abramovich's lavish £1.5 billion yacht also needs a refit, according to the billionaire.

    Pictured at Blohm Voss shipbuilders yard in Hamburg, Germany, the ship has been placed into a dry dock where workers are busy sprucing it up.

    Custom-made for the Chelsea oligarch in 2010, the Eclipse is 536ft long and 72.2ft wide, and has an estimated gross tonnage of 13,500GT.

    The master suite has bullet-proof windows and a laser system designed to shield its owner from the paparazzi and prying eyes.

    It was once the world's largest superyacht, but has since been surpassed by the 590ft Azzam, which is believed to be owned by Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the President of the United Arab Emirates.

    Abramovich also owns three other mega-yachts, the others are the Pelorus, at 377ft, the Ecstasea, at 282ft and the Sussurro at 161ft.

    We can sail up to Blackpool, Joe's favorite holiday destination - just have to wash the sewage off the ship later.
