Gigantic Semi-Submersible Ship Transformed into Superyacht

One problem billionaire yacht owners have: Even the largest yachts do not have enough open space to conduct Squid-Game-like activities with the poor people they’ve lured onboard. To solve this, yacht designer Timur Bozca was hired by an unknown kajillionaire to turn a semi-submersible ship into this unusual superyacht:

Remember Super Servant 4, that semi-submersible ship we looked at a few years ago? Ships in this class are the maritime version of a car-carrying trailer, and you may remember that Super Servant 4 was kitted out to transport yachts:

Turns out Super Servant 4 has an older sibling, Super Servant 3, built in 1982. Super Servant 3 has spent the past three years being refitted into the ship you see below, and now it’s ready for primetime.

Weirdly, the ship’s name is OK (as in “Ah, it’s just OK”?) It’s built to accommodate 20 guests (it doesn’t say how many servants or kidnap victims), and has over 3,300 square meters of deck space.

Three days from the nearest port, the owner realizes he forgot to buy a net for the tennis court.

In high seas, “guests” are forced to use the white lines on the deck in the manner of a standard roadside sobriety test.

Seen here are the two “time-out” boats, reserved for guests who annoy the owner. The smaller boat is for second offenders.

When bored, the owner can use this crane to indulge his hobby of sailing up to bridges to dismantle some of their structural components.

It should be noted that the ship has retained its submersible feature, allowing it to take on other yachts. This can be done without the smaller craft’s consent; the owner plans to scoop up Bezos at will.

“I like to hold onto Bezos for two days…”

“…because I call this move the ‘Free Two-Day Shipping.’
