CR7 Superyacht: Inside Cristiano Ronaldo's $7 Million Yacht

Football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo sails in style with his $7 million superyacht.

Quick Links

A superyacht for the family, the numerous amenities inside the yacht, a luxurious getaway.

Cristiano Ronaldo's unmatched talent and hard work have made him one of the greatest players in soccer. The player's football club deals, endorsements, and business investments have earned him a $500 million net worth, making him one of the highest-paid athletes in the world. Known for his style and charisma, the soccer star splashes millions on buying luxuries few can afford. A collector of the best, he has a stunning watch collection , a long fleet of sleek cars, and more recently, he purchased a mega yacht for his family.

The superyacht costs a whopping $7 million and boasts luxurious amenities that the family enjoys. Fans regularly catch a glimpse of the yacht through his social media accounts, where he shares snippets from his luxurious life. Let's take a look inside Cristiano Ronaldo's $7 million superyachts.

Cristiano Ronaldo has a growing family with his girlfriend Georgina Rodríguez, and he likes to be a hands-on father while providing them with luxuries he couldn't afford growing up in Portugal. Superyachts have been considered a status symbol today, and many top athletes own a motorboat that shows off their expensive tastes. Before Cristiano Ronaldo purchased his $7 million yachts in 2020, he would rent a yacht charter called Africa I that featured six cabins for twelve guests. According to Insider , the rent of the yacht was $239,500 per week, so the soccer star decided to purchase a yacht for himself.

In 2020, Ronaldo spotted the yacht in Viareggio, Italy, at the Azimut-Benetti Shipyards before buying it for himself. Called the Azimut-Grande 27, the yacht offers dynamic stability with its carbon-fiber structure that reduces weight and increases the surface area. Azimut-Grande 27 was designed by Achille Salvagni Architects, while the prolific superyacht designer Stefano Righini completed the exterior styling. The yacht's overall length is 26.78 meters, width is 6.59 meters with a maximum speed of 28 knots, as reported by Azimut Yachts .

The yacht's interior is equipped with space and comfort that the family can enjoy. It features five expansive bedrooms and six equally stunning bathrooms. Additionally, it has two lounge rooms with a dining table in the adjoining open area for a romantic dinner. The kitchen is stocked with modern appliances for the crew to make meals, as stated by Daily Star . The deck has an open bar with two lounge areas to bask in the sunlight next to it. The Owner's Cabin is located on the yacht's Main Deck and has full-height windows on all sides to offer a scenic view of the ocean.

The Azimut-Grande 27 was built considering the highest nautical standards and has received the CE Category A and NMMA certifications that ensure that the boat follows two important safety codes. At the Wheelhouse, the yacht is equipped with an Optimus Electronic Power Steering system created by Seastar Solutions and helps the owner configure responses to eliminate hydraulic lines from the helm station. With its Active Trim Control, the superyacht offers an increase in speed and lower fuel consumption.

As mentioned by The Sun , after purchasing the Azimut-Grande 27, Cristiano Ronaldo first set sail on the superyacht in 2020 and took it on a debut voyage to the Tyrrhenian coast, which is a part of the Mediterranean Sea with his girlfriend and children. The soccer star showed off the new purchase on Instagram to his more than 400 million followers. He has continued to set sail on the yacht during summers and taking time off from playing on the soccer field.

Ronaldo has been spotted on the yacht multiple times, including when his team was eliminated from the Round of 16 at Euro 2020, and he decided to take a break with his family. As a part of the Italian football club Juventus, he spends most of his time in Italy and sets sail along the beautiful coasts. He has also traveled to a small commune in Italy called Celle Ligure. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the soccer star spent uninterrupted time on the yacht away from the public with his family, enjoying the sea and staying aboard the luxury vessel.

Cristiano Ronaldo loves to live his life in luxury and has always maintained his status symbol as having one of the most lavish lifestyles of any athlete. The soccer player also continues to work hard to earn his big paychecks as he practices for his games while continuing his deal with the soccer club Juventus, which will end in 2022.

Inside Ronaldo’s $7.2m yacht, with five luxury cabins, six bathrooms, modern kitchen and top speed of 28 knots

• Published : 7:52 ET, Jul 30 2020
• Updated : 11:10 ET, Jul 30 2020

LIFE'S an ocean for this Juventus legend.

Cristiano Ronaldo has added an amazing $7.2million yacht to his luxury life, and why not?

The Portuguese football superstar made the expensive purchase last June - buying the 88-feet long Azimut Grande.

Built in the Versilia shipyards of Azimut-Benett , it boasts five luxury cabins and six stunningly decorated bathrooms.

There's also a modern kitchen onboard, as well as two relaxation areas, a huge lounge, and a lavish dining room.

In terms of its specifications, it's capable of reaching 28 knots, thanks to two 1,900 horsepower engines, and is made of carbon fibre weighing a whopping 93 tonnes.

HIS OWN YACHT

Ronaldo bought the super-yacht last summer for $7.2million.

Previously, he used to rent the Africa I yacht from a charter company before buying his own.

But this year he was able to take his family, including missus Georgina Rodriguez out on the Azimut Grande as they sailed along the Tyrrhenian coast.

Back in June, Georgina showed off the vessel by sharing a sexy bikini snap on Instagram perched on deck.

Cristiano Ronaldo: Super yacht rental world champion!

Cristiano Ronaldo ‘s for luxury yachts is not just a passing infatuation, but instead a true passion. At the end of the football season, but also in the short breaks between one match and another, Cristiano never fails to enjoy a holiday with his family on one of many magnificent charter yachts available for that occasion.

Who is Cristiano Ronaldo?

Wait, are you serious? If there really still exists someone who doesn’t know him, let’s make a brief introduction: Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the most important and influential footballers in the world. Portuguese, grown up on Madeira island, this champion has won countless titles and trophies during his career, among which 5 Golden Balls and 5 Champions Leagues stand out.

In the last 10 years, his fame has been achieved and sometimes surpassed only by another footballer, his great rival, Lionel Messi.

His latest purchase: 

Let’s start from the end. The last appearance in chronological order of Cristiano Ronaldo onboard a yacht took place in July 2020 when, together with Georgina Rodriguez, his current partner, and his children, he took a short vacation in the Tyrrhenian Sea between an Italian championship match and another.

Related: All the Azimut Grande yachts for charter

The difference, however, from his previous experiences lies in the fact that he didn’t rent a yacht because this time the boat was entirely owned by him.

The champion choice could only fall on one of the best models in terms of yachts: a 27-meter Azimut Grande , purchased, according to rumors, in Viareggio’s shipyards for a figure of around 6 million euros.

What about this yacht? Only the best! Built-in the Azimut-Benetti shipyards in Versilia, it has 5 cabins with 6 bathrooms and can accommodate up to 8 people. It was made of carbon fiber for a total weight of about 93 tons and is powered by two 1900 horsepower engines that can reach a maximum speed of 28 knots powered by a 9500-liter tank that guarantees a very good range.

The comfort onboard, as well as the luxury finishes and a considerable number of gadgets and water games, is guaranteed by a crew of 3.

The Portuguese champion must have been so impressed by the beauty of this yacht model probably while spending onboard it one of his vacation periods.

In fact, it was not the first time he had boarded a Benetti-Azimut Grande. Just a few weeks earlier, for example, he had posted some photos on Instagram portraying him, always with his family, aboard a 35-meter from the same brand, this time chartered in the Italian Versilia coastline.

A long list of charter yacht vacation

Before then, there were certainly many occasions in which Cristiano Ronaldo allowed himself the luxury of a charter yacht.

During summer 2019, for example, the Juventus forward spent his family vacation off the coast of Monte Carlo aboard the wonderful yacht Africa I.

A 47-meter long yacht, the Africa I was built by Benetti in 2010 and underwent a complete restyling in 2018.

Made of aluminum, it is equipped with every comfort: air conditioning, gym, Jacuzzi, Wi-Fi connection.

Onboard, it can accommodate up to 12 guests divided into six bedrooms: a master suite, four bedrooms with double beds, and a bedroom with single beds.

A 9 crew member ensures maximum comfort for all guests.

The luxurious interiors are signed by the designer Zuretti, a guarantee as splendid furnishings and elegant seating like the sofas and sun loungers

Finally, there is no shortage of leisure and entertainment facilities as a spectacular slide that reaches the pool.

Africa I has a maximum speed of 23 knots and a cruising speed of 12 for an extraordinary sailing experience.

The eternal challenge with Messi:

The rivalry with his colleague and champion Lionel Messi has always been heated both on and off the pitch, with the duo always put in competition on personal trophies and titles won, number of social media followers, and even in terms of salary.

The choice of the yacht on which they spend their holidays is certainly no exception.

An example? In 2016 they found themselves a short distance away in the sea between Ibiza and Formentera on board their respective charter yachts:

This time Cristiano Ronaldo had chosen a real jewel, the Ascari yacht, with over 36 meters in length and over 7 meters wide.

Built-in 2003 by Palmer Johnson Yacht and refitted in 2015, it can reach a maximum speed of thirty knots and a cruising speed of 22. Space onboard is not lacking and in fact, the Ascari can accommodate up to 10 guests in 4 cabins and 5 crew members.

At the same time, Lionel Messi was aboard the Seven C, a 28 meters long and just under five meters wide yacht, built-in 2003 and refitted in 2011.

The Seven C can reach a maximum speed of 22 knots and can accommodate up to ten people, as well as three crew members.

In 2018, the two found themselves even “sharing” the same charter yacht, a few weeks apart from each other, while spending their summer holidays in the Balearic archipelago. 

It was the turn of the Tecnomar’s ultra-luxury yacht called Blue Jay to steal the show, a 36-meter super-equipped yacht with everything needed for the enjoyment of its 12 guests, which is available for charter right now in the Balearic Sea .

The muted modern interiors have a laid-back atmosphere where comfort and convenience take priority: The main salon is flooded with natural light thanks to all the windows down both sides of the room. Family and friends can socialise together in the same space with freshly prepared meals served at the forward formal dining area, while the plush sofas and armchairs behind are centred around a coffee table for conversation in air conditioned surroundings.

After sundown, the intimate skylounge is ready as a party venue or a serene place to unwind after a hectic day while the professional crew produce sweet and savoury cocktails as the group discusses their next big adventure on the sumptuous sofas. The projector can be used for films and showing off any holiday footage captured by camera or drone, and there are games consoles for keeping the kids engaged while the adults are entertaining.

AFRICA I – Skylounge as a cinema

Balanced outdoor spaces will give any charter group a wealth of dining options from the main deck aft up to the sundeck, and those with an active outdoor lifestyle will appreciate the fresh air. The upper deck aft offers the most elegant location for an alfresco meal, sheltered from gusts while providing open views of the stunning Mediterranean sunsets. The foredeck has a novel design, allowing for sunbathing on the foredeck while the recessed bow has an outdoor lounge attached to the Master suite, protecting users’ privacy with high bulwarks reminiscent of the tall urban garden walls to be found in Italy.

The Jacuzzi on the sundeck is the perfect place to soak in the sunshine and enjoy complete privacy all day long, with sun loungers, shaded sofas and an alfresco dining table at the group’s disposal.

Perhaps best of all, guests have at their fingertips and array of water toys for use amongst the magnificent beaches of the Cote d’Azur . The collection includes:

• 3 x Seadoo Waverunners
• 2 x Seabobs
• 1 x paddleboard
• 1 x wakeboard
• fishing gear
• snorkelling equipment
• a water slide, and
• inflatable and towable toys

Those who can’t wait to get into the water can use the on board gym to keep up a fitness regime and burn off excess energy…and the calories from the indulgent treats to be found within the region.

AFRICA I – Master stateroom main deck

The guest accommodation sleeps up to 12 guests across 6 en-suite cabins: 1 Master suite, 3 double cabins and 2 twin cabins.

Cristiano Ronaldo Buys £5.5 Million Yacht To Celebrate Juventus' Serie A Title Win

The 35-year-old has splashed out..

Daniel Marland

Cristiano Ronaldo has celebrated winning yet another league title by spending £5.5 million on a new luxury yacht.

Juventus were confirmed Serie A champions after a 2-0 victory over Sampdoria on Sunday and it's the seventh league title of Ronaldo's career .

The 35-year-old has decided to commemorate the victory by splashing out on the vessel which boasts five cabins, six bathrooms, a large lounge as well as a kitchen.

His girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez shared images on Instagram to give fans a peek inside.

Ronaldo and Rodriguez set sail for the first time this week after the yacht caught the five-time Ballon d'Or winner's eye at the Azimut-Benetti shipyards in Viareggio.

The Portuguese international picked out the yacht himself and also took his four children along.

On the pitch, it's been another scintillating season and Ronaldo has scored 31 goals in 33 league games this season .

He is four goals behind Lazio's Ciro Immobile in the Capocannoniere race with one game remaining.

Juventus fell to a 2-0 defeat against Cagliari last night and they face Roma on Saturday in what will be their fifth game in 12 days.

Manager Maurizio Sarri has vented his frustrations post-match and has threatened to play an under-23's team this weekend.

"Conceding 40 goals this season might be a concern, but tonight's game was not," he explained per Goal .

"We had we injured players and we came off a championship win 68 hours ago, so it was an atypical game that should be taken for what it is.

"We must become more solid. But we are the only ones in Europe who have played five games in 12 days, the league has created huge problems for us.

"Let's see how we are tomorrow and if it is appropriate to deploy the Under-23s on Saturday against Roma to make the best recovery."

When asked about starting Ronaldo with the league already wrapped up and Champions League looming, Sarri replied: "At times Cristiano and [Gonzalo] Higuain clicked because we did create chances, but we lacked a bit of class and ruthlessness tonight.

"Cristiano was very motivated, he wanted to play because he felt good and ready to play."

Sardinia luxury yacht charter

Sardinia’s scalloped bays, shimmering sands and dramatic coastline have long been the playground of screen starlets, royalty, first families and the yachting elite. With some of the most exclusive harbours, hotels and restaurants in the western Mediterranean, a luxury yacht charter around the Italian island of Sardinia seamlessly combines sun-soaked glamour with timeless elegance and natural beauty. A Tyrrhenian Sea yacht charter around this island can happily balance partying in hotspots like Porto Cervo on the Costa Smeralda with an escape to secluded islands and jaw-dropping marine parks in places such as the Maddalena archipelago.

Sardinia yacht season and weather

Sardinia is hot and dry from May to October with the island enjoying an average of 300 days of sunshine a year. Peak charter months are July and August, though June is also an excellent time to charter. August is particularly busy as most Italians take their holidays during this month.

Most rain falls between October and February, giving much of Sardinia a lush and verdant character. Visitors may well experience balmy summer days in March and April, though evenings will be cool during this time of year. The prevailing wind is north westerly, which can be particularly significant on the Strait of Bonifacio at the north of the island.

Sardinia superyacht charter itineraries

Historic Cagliari crowns Sardinia’s southern edge, and a litter of pretty coves and tiny villages then await. With vineyards inland and towns steeped in history, it is a region rich in cultural and gastronomic offerings. Yachts up to 55 metres LOA can drop anchor at Marina di Cagliari. 

To the north, the superyacht haven of Porto Cervo is the central hub for the yachting elite that descend on Sardinia’s glittering Costa Smeralda each summer. Home to some of Europe’s most expensive residences and exclusive resorts, including the iconic Cala di Volpe hotel, Porto Cervo pulsates during the summer season and its bars and restaurants promise a great night ashore. 

The Yacht Club Costa Smeralda is based in Porto Cervo and organises a packed yacht racing season throughout the summer. Highlights of the Mediterranean cruising calendar in Sardinia include the Giorgio Armani Superyacht Regatta, the Loro Piana Superyacht Regatta, the Maxi Rolex Cup and Rolex Swan Cup – all lively events for sailing enthusiasts in Porto Cervo to get involved with. Yachts up to 120 metres can berth at the IGY marina in Port Cervo.

South of Porto Cervo, the resort village of Porto Rotondo’s turquoise waters, pristine beaches and charming piazzas will prove irresistible, and the port here has 25 berths for megayachts. Cruise 20 nautical miles and dock at Marina di Olbia (for yachts up to 80 metres) to discover the city’s café-lined squares. Further south explore the caves near Cala Luna, where the peaks of Gennargentu National Park provide a dramatic backdrop and the snorkelling is excellent. Nearby Cala Goloritzé is another natural wonder.

From the northern coast of the main island cruise about 10 nautical miles offshore toward the spectacular archipelago of La Maddalena. While away long, languid sunny days around Caprera, Spargi, Santo Stefano, Santa Maria, Budelli and Razzoli, and discover some of Sardinia’s best beaches and the island’s breathtaking lagoons. On Isola Maddalena, Cala Gavetta marina can host yachts up to 60 metres LOA, as can the marina of the Hotel Excelsior. On Capera, Porto Palma can accommodate yachts up to 40 metres.

Some luxury yacht charters will combine the magic of Sardinia with French-held Corsica – the islands lie in a north to south run, with Corsica sitting off Sardinia’s northerly tip.

On Corsica , visit the historic capital of Porto-Vecchio, discover the UNESCO wonders of the Lavezzi islands and marvel at the houses perched atop the windswept bluffs in Bonifacio before cruising south to the majestic La Maddelena archipelago.

Sardinia by superyacht

Getting to sardinia.

Olbia, Alghero and Cagliari airports handle commercial and private jets.

Many visiting charters will arrive from the west coast of Italy. Corsica and Sardinia run north to south.

Legal requirements

Sardinia is part of Italy, so the same yachting and travel regulations apply to this island as on the mainland.

For the first time Rosatom Fuel Division supplied fresh nuclear fuel to the world’s only floating nuclear cogeneration plant in the Arctic

The fuel was supplied to the northernmost town of Russia along the Northern Sea Route.

The first in the history of the power plant refueling, that is, the replacement of spent nuclear fuel with fresh one, is planned to begin before 2024. The manufacturer of nuclear fuel for all Russian nuclear icebreakers, as well as the Akademik Lomonosov FNPP, is Machinery Manufacturing Plant, Joint-Stock Company (MSZ JSC), a company of Rosatom Fuel Company TVEL that is based in Elektrostal, Moscow Region.

The FNPP includes two KLT-40S reactors of the icebreaking type. Unlike convenient ground-based large reactors (that require partial replacement of fuel rods once every 12-18 months), in the case of these reactors, the refueling takes place once every few years and includes unloading of the entire reactor core and loading of fresh fuel into the reactor.

The cores of KLT-40 reactors of the Akademik Lomonosov floating power unit have a number of advantages compared to the reference ones: a cassette core was used for the first time in the history of the unit, which made it possible to increase the fuel energy resource to 3-3.5 years between refuelings, and also reduce the fuel component of the electricity cost by one and a half times. The FNPP operating experience formed the basis for the designs of reactors for nuclear icebreakers of the newest series 22220. Three such icebreakers have been launched by now.

For the first time the power units of the Akademik Lomonosov floating nuclear power plant were connected to the grid in December 2019, and put into commercial operation in May 2020. The supply of nuclear fuel from Elektrostal to Pevek and its loading into the second reactor is planned for 2024. The total power of the Akademik Lomonosov FNPP, supplied to the coastal grid of Pevek without thermal energy consumption on shore, is about 76 MW, being about 44 MW in the maximum thermal power supply mode. The FNPP generated 194 million kWh according to the results of 2023. The population of Pevek is just a little more than 4 thousand, while the FNPP has a potential for supplying electricity to a city with a population of up to 100 thousand people. After the FNPP commissioning two goals were achieved. These include first of all the replacement of the retiring capacities of the Bilibino NPP, which has been operating since 1974, as well as the Chaunskaya TPP, which has already been operating for more than 70 years. Secondly, energy is supplied to the main mining companies in western Chukotka in the Chaun-Bilibino energy hub a large ore and metal cluster, including gold mining companies and projects related to the development of the Baimsk ore zone. In September 2023, a 110 kilovolt power transmission line with a length of 490 kilometers was put into operation, connecting the towns of Pevek and Bilibino. The line increased the reliability of energy supply from the FNPP to both Bilibino consumers and mining companies, the largest of which is the Baimsky GOK. The comprehensive development of the Russian Arctic is a national strategic priority. To increase the NSR traffic is of paramount importance for accomplishment of the tasks set in the field of cargo shipping. This logistics corridor is being developed due regular freight voyages, construction of new nuclear-powered icebreakers and modernization of the relevant infrastructure. Rosatom companies are actively involved in this work. Rosatom Fuel Company TVEL (Rosatom Fuel Division) includes companies fabricating nuclear fuel, converting and enriching uranium, manufacturing gas centrifuges, conducting researches and producing designs. As the only nuclear fuel supplier to Russian NPPs, TVEL supplies fuel for a total of 75 power reactors in 15 countries, for research reactors in nine countries, as well as for propulsion reactors of the Russian nuclear fleet. Every sixth power reactor in the world runs on TVEL fuel. Rosatom Fuel Division is the world’s largest producer of enriched uranium and the leader on the global stable isotope market. The Fuel Division is actively developing new businesses in chemistry, metallurgy, energy storage technologies, 3D printing, digital products, and decommissioning of nuclear facilities. TVEL also includes Rosatom integrators for additive technologies and electricity storage systems. Rosenergoatom, Joint-Stock Company is part of Rosatom Electric Power Division and one of the largest companies in the industry acting as an operator of nuclear power plants. It includes, as its branches, 11 operating NPPs, including the FNPP, the Scientific and Technical Center for Emergency Operations at NPPs, Design and Engineering as well as Technological companies. In total, 37 power units with a total installed capacity of over 29.5 GW are in operation at 11 nuclear power plants in Russia. Machinery Manufacturing Plant, Joint-Stock Company (MSZ JSC, Elektrostal) is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of fuel for nuclear power plants. The company produces fuel assemblies for VVER-440, VVER-1000, RBMK-1000, BN-600,800, VK-50, EGP-6; powders and fuel pellets intended for supply to foreign customers. It also produces nuclear fuel for research reactors. The plant belongs to the TVEL Fuel Company of Rosatom.
