Are these superyachts built with defence capabilities? If I were a billionaire I'd be building these to suit my life in some potential Waterworld future.

- nekoashide 4y agoI have heard that some are equipped with defenses like that but those were more for heads of state.
- Kon-Peki 4y agoI'm sure that the rules are different for important people. But in general, no armed foreign boat is allowed in any port in the world unless it is a military vessel with an agreement already in place. It's completely legal to summarily execute pirates in most of the world.
- rosnd 4y agoNo, that would be too limiting. Instead they'll just meet their armed PMSC escorts in international waters.
- jws 4y agoIn general, arming a boat is a huge nuisance if you are going to travel between countries. You might have a fantastic super yacht, but it’s like every country thinks they can make their own rules and tell you what you can and can’t do in their territory. Crazy.
