🚢 Kingdom 5KR 🚢

🏰 Kingdom 5KR is an 85.65-meter (281.0 ft) superyacht owned by Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal. 🌟

🛠️ Built in 1980 by Benetti at a cost of $100 million (equivalent to $260M in 2009), it was designed by Jon Bannenberg with interiors by Luigi Sturchio. Originally named Nabila, it was constructed for Saudi billionaire Adnan Khashoggi and named after his daughter. 🌊

🎬 This magnificent yacht featured in the James Bond movie “Never Say Never Again” as the villain’s superyacht, Flying Saucer. It also inspired the song “Khashoggi’s Ship” on Queen’s 1989 album “The Miracle”. 🎸

💼 After Khashoggi faced financial difficulties, the yacht changed hands several times. It was sold to the Sultan of Brunei in 1988, then to Donald Trump for $29 million, who renamed it Trump Princess. In 1991, Trump sold it to Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal for $40 million. The name Kingdom 5KR comes from the Prince’s Kingdom Holding Company, his lucky number, and his children’s initials. 👑

⚓ The yacht has a beam of 13.25 meters (43.5 ft), a draught of 4.72 meters (15.5 ft), and a fuel capacity of 515,000 liters (136,000 gallons). Upon delivery, it featured five decks, a disco, a cinema for 12, 11 opulent suites, a helipad, a pool, two Riva tenders, and a crew of 48. It boasts a top speed of 20 knots and a cruising speed of 17.5 knots. 🌐

🛳️ Kingdom 5KR’s steel hull and aluminum superstructure provide a smooth cruising experience with its ultra-modern stabilization system. With a cruising speed of 17 knots, a max speed of 20 knots, and a range of 8500 nautical miles from its 615,000-liter fuel tanks, this yacht is built for luxury and performance. 🌟

👥 Accommodation is available for up to 22 guests in 11 suites, with room for up to 31 crew members to ensure a relaxed and luxurious experience. 🌴

📸 Last refitted in 1993, Kingdom 5KR remains a symbol of opulence and luxury on the high seas. 🌊
