A Russian spy turned banker is selling his 257-foot superyacht for $100 million. Regularly featured as a backdrop by his glamorous wife on Instagram, the Amaryllis boasts palatial guest suites, striking Art Deco interiors, two gyms, a spa, and even a self-playing piano.

Amaryllis, a 257-foot Abeking & Rasmussen superyacht, is a true marvel of luxury. It is owned by Russian businessman and former banker Andrey Borodin. The billionaire sought asylum in the UK in 2013, leaving behind his career as president of the Bank of Moscow. In the UK, he embraced a life of luxury by making Park Place, a historic estate in Oxfordshire, his home. The 57-year-old purchased it for a staggering $140 million, making it one of the most expensive residential property purchases, according to Daily Mail.

Complementing his grand land-based possession is his opulent accommodation at sea: the Amaryllis superyacht, commissioned in 2011. The grand luxury vessel, with elegant interiors inspired by Belle Époque, Art Nouveau, and Art Deco styles, is now listed for sale after nearly a decade.

Anyone familiar with Borodin’s bold and beautiful model wife, Tatiana Korsakova, would have seen glimpses of this superyacht through her frequent Instagram posts.

The five-deck vessel, listed for $100 million, features not one but two gyms (perhaps catering to Borodin’s model-turned-entrepreneur wife), a large jacuzzi pool, a glass elevator, and even a self-playing piano. Unique artisan furniture by Silver Lining decorates the rooms, adding character. The splendid superyacht also includes an impressive beach club next to a dedicated gym, a spa with a sauna, steam room, plunge pool, and a massage suite.

Amaryllis, powered by twin 2,000hp Caterpillar 3516 diesel engines, boasts a top speed of 16.5 knots and a range of 5,085 nautical miles at 12.5 knots. The vessel was refitted in 2023 and is listed with Burgess Yachts for an asking price of $100 million.
