A $29 million mansion is not the most luxurious thing Michael Jordan owns. Jordan’s most opulent acquisition was the luxurious superyacht ‘Joy,’ which he purchased for a staggering $80 million in 2019. This impressive vessel is his priciest asset, measuring 230 feet in length and nearly 10 feet in width. However, size is not the only highlight of the vessel.?

An $80 million luxury yacht is only fitting for the first athlete to crack the billion-dollar club. It spans five decks and showcases a remarkable array of features, encompassing eight cabins, an indoor jacuzzi, a cinema, a spa, and a stunning dining area. Well, the lavish ride needs equally extravagant maintenance, and ‘His Airness’ is certainly not shying away from spending an astronomical amount for the upkeep of the yacht.?

Billionaire Michael Jordan isn’t stingy when it comes to his $80 million yacht

Michael Jordan took his first journey with the yacht when the Chicago Bulls legend set sail to the Caribbean island of Saint Barth?lemy, joined by a group of his closest friends. Since then, he’s frequently been seen relaxing on its decks with his wife, Yvette Prieto.

In terms of upkeep expenses, maintaining ‘Joy’ doesn’t come at a low cost either. But keep in mind, apart from being a six-time NBA champion, Mike is also the 379th wealthiest person in America. And he has the yacht receipts to show for it.?

As per Marca, MJ’s yacht requires a crew of 19 individuals on board around the clock, for a weekly maintenance bill of $800,000. Although its top speed can reach 16 knots, it generally cruises at a comfortable 12 knots. And for those who picture a basketball court on board, your imagination is accurate. ‘Joy’ not only houses a gym but also includes a basketball court.

What’s more, you can rent the yacht for a week for just $840,000. After all, Mike has a spare ride as well, which he takes out for a spin whenever he feels like it.?
