Much of the signature design of the previous model has been retained while adding unique touches such as the inverse tumblehome and swooping lines that create the appearance of a larger stern section and streamlined bow.

Luxury yacht STARDUST features a spacious beach club of 35m2/376.7ft2 with a massive swim platform for sunbathing beside the water, while the sundeck boasts a forward hexagonal spa pool and a stern fitted with sunbeds.

Who Owns Superyacht Stardust? (Uncovering the Mystery)

From the glimmering waters off the coast of Monaco to the Mediterranean Sea, Superyacht Stardust captivates onlookers with its breathtaking beauty.

But who owns this luxurious vessel? Uncovering the mystery of Stardusts ownership takes us on an incredible journey deep into the world of the super-rich, and the fascinating life of its owner, Andrey Melnichenko.

In this article, we’ll explore Melnichenkos extraordinary fleet of yachts, the incredible features and amenities of Stardust, and the popular destinations the vessel has been known to frequent.

Read on to find out who owns Superyacht Stardust!

Table of Contents

Short Answer

The owner of the superyacht Stardust is unknown.

However, it is rumored to be owned by a Russian billionaire, with speculation that it was purchased by a member of the Alisher Usmanov family.

The yacht is reportedly worth over $200 million and measures over 132 meters in length.

It is considered to be one of the most luxurious yachts in the world.

Who is Andrey Melnichenko?

Andrey Melnichenko is a Russian billionaire who is the owner of the luxury superyacht Stardust.

He is an extremely successful entrepreneur and investor who has made his fortune in the energy, banking, and fertilizer industries.

He is the founder and chairman of EuroChem, one of the world’s largest fertilizer companies, and is the co-founder and chairman of MDM Bank, one of Russia’s largest banks.

Melnichenko is also the founder of the A-Group, a business empire which includes the A-Line, a clothing line; the A-Realty, a real estate company; the A-Club, a charity club; and the A-Technology, a technology firm.

Melnichenko has a long history of luxury yacht ownership.

His first yacht was the A, a 377-foot vessel which was built in 2008.

He then commissioned the Sailing Yacht A, a sail-assisted motor yacht which was launched in 2015.

His latest yacht is the Stardust, a 394-foot vessel which was built in 2019 by German shipyard Nobiskrug.

The Stardust is reported to have cost $450 million to construct and features eight decks, an infinity pool, and its own nightclub.

It is the latest addition to the Melnichenko’s fleet of luxury yachts, which also includes the A, the Sailing Yacht A, and the Motor Yacht A.

Melnichenko is known for his opulent lifestyle and is often seen enjoying his yachts with his glamorous wife, Russian model Aleksandra Melnichenko.

He is also known for his charitable works and is a major donor to the United Nations and other organizations.

What are the Features of Superyacht Stardust?

The luxurious Superyacht Stardust, owned by Russian billionaire Andrey Melnichenko, is 394-foot vessel that was built in 2019 by German shipyard Nobiskrug.

The cost of building the yacht is estimated to be around $450 million.

It features eight decks, an infinity pool, and its own nightclub, making it the perfect place to relax and entertain guests.

The Stardust is equipped with a range of state-of-the-art amenities, from a helipad to a gym, spa, and even a submarine.

Its exterior is made of steel and the interior is designed with a modern aesthetic, featuring marble floors, white leather furniture, and a grand staircase.

The yacht has one master suite and seven guest cabins, all of which are luxurious and comfortable.

The yacht also features a large sun deck, complete with a Jacuzzi and day beds, as well as a swimming pool with a slide.

The Stardust is also equipped with two tenders, two Jet Skis, and a wide range of water toys.

For entertainment, the yacht has a movie theater, a DJ booth, and a nightclub.

To make sure the guests are safe and secure, the yacht is also equipped with an advanced security system.

The Stardust is the latest in a series of luxurious yachts owned by Melnichenko, who also owns the A, the Sailing Yacht A, and the Motor Yacht A.

These yachts feature a range of amenities that make them the perfect vessels for cruising in style and comfort.

How Much Did the Stardust Cost to Construct?

The luxury superyacht Stardust is owned by Russian billionaire Andrey Melnichenko, and it was built by the German shipyard Nobiskrug in 2019.

Reports suggest that the Stardust cost an astonishing $450 million to construct, making it one of the most expensive yachts ever built.

The 394-foot vessel is truly a sight to behold, featuring eight decks, an infinity pool, and its own nightclub.

All of these luxurious amenities come with a hefty price tag, and the Stardust is no exception.

Melnichenko spared no expense when it came to the construction of the Stardust, and it shows.

The Stardust is the latest in a series of luxurious yachts owned by Melnichenko.

He also owns the A, the Sailing Yacht A, and the Motor Yacht A, all of which are equally as impressive as the Stardust.

Melnichenko is known for his extravagant lifestyle and his taste for the finer things in life, and the Stardust is an example of this.

The Stardust is a testament to Melnichenko’s wealth and power, and it’s easy to see why it cost so much to construct.

From its intricate design to its luxurious amenities, the Stardust is a statement of Melnichenko’s success and a symbol of his power.

For those of us who can’t afford to build a yacht of this caliber, we can only dream of the kind of luxury that comes with owning a superyacht like the Stardust. It’s a mystery why Melnichenko chose to build such an extravagant vessel, but one thing is for sure: it cost a pretty penny to construct.

The Other Yachts in Melnichenko’s Fleet

When it comes to luxury superyachts, Russian billionaire Andrey Melnichenko is no stranger.

The latest addition to his portfolio is the 394-foot Stardust, which was built in 2019 by German shipyard Nobiskrug and reportedly cost $450 million to construct.

But this isn’t the first luxury vessel Melnichenko has owned.

Before the Stardust, Melnichenko owned the A, a luxury motor yacht designed by Philippe Starck.

It was constructed in 2008 by Blohm + Voss in Hamburg and featured a 300-foot main deck, seven guest suites, and a helipad.

It was reported to have cost $323 million.

Following the A was the Sailing Yacht A, a majestic 436-foot vessel built in 2017 by Nobiskrug.

This luxurious yacht features an unprecedented eight decks and a breathtaking infinity pool.

It also has its own nightclub, an underwater observation deck, and a helipad.

The Sailing Yacht A was reported to have cost a whopping $400 million.

Finally, Melnichenko owns the Motor Yacht A, which was also built by Nobiskrug in 2016.

This vessel is said to be the largest and most expensive yacht in the world, measuring in at a whopping 468 feet in length.

The Motor Yacht A features a helipad, a spa, a gym, and an outdoor cinema.

It reportedly cost $500 million to build.

So, while the Stardust is the latest in Melnichenko’s series of luxurious yachts, it is far from the first.

The Russian billionaire has been collecting luxurious vessels for years, and each one is more stunning than the next.

It’s clear that Melnichenko has a passion for luxury yachts, and his collection is certainly impressive.

The Luxury Amenities of the Stardust

When it comes to luxury amenities, the Stardust is in a class of its own.

From its eight decks to its infinity pool and nightclub, the Stardust offers luxury features and amenities that are unparalleled.

At 394 feet long, the Stardust is the largest and most opulent yacht in the fleet of superyachts owned by Russian billionaire Andrey Melnichenko.

The Stardust was built in 2019 by the German shipyard Nobiskrug and is reported to have cost $450 million to construct.

It features eight decks, each designed to provide a unique experience.

The main deck is the grandest of them all, featuring an infinity pool, a jacuzzi, an outdoor bar, and an outdoor cinema.

The pool is lined with a special glass and can be filled with either fresh or salt water.

It is also illuminated with LED lights, allowing for a unique nighttime experience.

In addition to the main deck, the Stardust also features a sundeck, a beach club, a spa, and a gym.

The beach club features a pool, lounge chairs, and a private beach area.

The spa is complete with a sauna and steam room, while the gym offers state-of-the-art equipment.

The Stardust also has a nightclub, which features an LED dance floor and a fully stocked bar.

The club is designed to host events and parties, with a live DJ spinning tunes into the wee hours of the night.

The Stardust is a testament to Melnichenkos dedication to luxury.

From its eight decks to its infinity pool and nightclub, the Stardust is a stunning example of luxury and opulence.

The Mystery Surrounding Stardust’s Ownership

The mystery surrounding the ownership of Stardust, the 394-foot luxury superyacht, has been a topic of intrigue since its construction in 2019.

Built by the German shipyard Nobiskrug, the vessel is estimated to have cost $450 million to construct.

Its eight decks, infinity pool, and nighclub have made it a topic of envy amongst the wealthy elite.

Although the superyacht is owned by Russian billionaire Andrey Melnichenko, the exact details of its ownership remain shrouded in mystery.

This is because Melnichenko is known for his penchant for privacy, and it is believed that he may have employed a variety of techniques to keep the ownership of Stardust a closely guarded secret.

One possible explanation is that the yacht is registered under a third-party trust or company.

This would mean that the vessel’s true ownership is not publicly available, making it difficult to ascertain who exactly owns the Stardust.

It is also possible that Melnichenko has employed a variety of other methods to veil the ownership of the yacht, such as transferring ownership to a family member or close associate.

Whatever the case, the mystery surrounding Stardust’s ownership is an intriguing one.

This is amplified by the fact that Melnichenko also owns the A, the Sailing Yacht A, and the Motor Yacht A – all of which are equally luxurious and expensive vessels.

It is clear that the Russian billionaire has a penchant for luxury, and it is no surprise that he has chosen to keep the ownership of Stardust a closely guarded secret.

A rare mayday preceded Baltimore bridge collapse: 'I couldn't think of a worse situation'

The Dali cargo ship was cruising away from the Port of Baltimore when its lights suddenly went out just after 1:24 a.m. Tuesday.  

The Singaporean vessel, which stretches nearly 1,000 feet long, had apparently lost power. It was now effectively rudderless and at the mercy of the currents.

“The worst sound you ever hear on a ship is dead silence, because that means everything’s gone wrong,” said Salvatore Mercogliano, a maritime expert and historian. 

Four minutes later, the Dali crashed into the Francis Scott Key Bridge. The 1.6-mile span crumpled into the harbor within seconds. Six construction workers who were filling potholes on the bridge remain missing.

Video of the ship, emergency radio transmissions and analysis from maritime veterans paint a picture of a disastrous scenario. It is rare for ships of that size to lose power and rarer still for it to happen in a narrow channel near the pillars of a major bridge. A last-minute mayday and quick actions on the ground most likely averted a much higher casualty count.

“Hold all traffic on the Key Bridge,” an unidentified first responder said over emergency radio transmissions posted online by Broadcastify, a website that streams and records radio communications. “There’s a ship approaching that just lost their steering.”

At that point, the Dali was drifting, powerless, toward the bridge at a speed of about 8 knots. Maritime experts said there was most likely little the crew could have done to avert catastrophe.

“An engine conking out 3 miles out in the ocean is an aggravation and an economic problem, because you lose time,” said Henry Lipian, a retired Coast Guard lieutenant and founder of the Introtech accident reconstruction firm. “In a narrow channel at night, with a bridge in front of you, I couldn’t think of a worse situation to deal with.”

A ship can drop anchor in an attempt to avert a collision, but given the Dali’s size, speed and distance from the bridge, such a move most likely wouldn’t have helped, said Morgan McManus, an instructor at SUNY Maritime College in New York who has worked on cargo ships and tankers.

“At 8 knots you need a couple thousand yards to do it,” McManus said.

Investigators are now working to piece together what happened. Lipian said he suspected that fuel or an issue with the fuel system might have been the culprit. 

“While in port, did they take on a load of fuel?” he said. “Was it the proper grade of fuel? Was it contaminated?”

The ship had data recorders on board, but they have yet to be analyzed, officials said.

“We chose not to board the vessel today to allow some time for the search and recovery, which we did not want to interfere with,” said Jennifer Homendy, chair of the National Transportation and Safety Board.

She described the recorder as a “critical piece of our investigation.”

An inspection of the Dali in Chile in June noted “deficiencies” in “propulsion and auxiliary machinery,” including gauges and thermometers, according to data on the website Equasis, which publishes safety-related information about ships. But the Dali had subsequent inspections, including one in September in New York, in which no deficiencies were noted.

Experts cautioned not to read too much into the deficiencies recorded in June. They could have been a result of something minor, like paperwork issues. 

The Dali, a Singaporean-flagged vessel chartered by the Danish shipping giant Maersk, was bound for Sri Lanka.

“We are horrified by what has happened in Baltimore, and our thoughts are with all of those affected,” Maersk said in a statement. “We are closely following the investigations.”

Synergy Marine Group, which operates and manages the ship, said that two port pilots were at the helm of the Dali at the time of the crash and that all 22 crew members on board were accounted for. Port, or bay, pilots play a crucial role in helping large ships navigate narrow waterways. They hop on ships approaching ports and hop off after they leave the harbors, using their extensive knowledge of their areas to guide vessels to safety.

“There’s very little margin of error going through some of these ship channels,” said Mercogliano, the maritime expert, who is an adjunct professor at the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy and a history professor at Campbell University in North Carolina.

Mercogliano said a local tugboat operator who heard the mayday call told him a pilot issued it. 

“What the pilot did was what they were supposed to do,” Mercogliano said.

Containerships' colliding with bridges is rare but not unheard of. Last month, a cargo vessel struck a bridge outside the city of Guangzhou, China, causing a section of the roadway to come crashing down, killing five people. 

The deadliest such collision in the U.S. occurred in 1980, when a cargo ship rammed into the Sunshine Skyway Bridge in Tampa Bay, Florida, bringing it down and killing 35.

Dramatic video captured the moment the Key Bridge tumbled into the water at 1:28 a.m. Tuesday.

The boat’s lights, after having gone out at 1:24 a.m., went back on one minute later, and dark smoke began billowing from the ship’s chimney. Then, at 1:26 a.m., the ship appeared to turn sharply. Before it slammed into the bridge, the Dali’s lights flicked off and on again. 

Local residents said they were shocked by the sight of the gaping hole above the bay where the bridge had stood for nearly a half-century. 

“It’s literally at the end of the street; you see it coming home every day,” said William Reynolds, of Dundalk. “And now it’s just not there.”
