The most outstanding and most expensive feature on board is the high-security technology specifically designed for the Eclipse; it even has a special room that controls all CCTV in the yacht, an advanced anti-missile system and all windows are fully armored which makes this mega yacht the safest place in the world.

It’s possible to spend your holidays inside this yacht; if you are a millionaire, that is: the Eclipse can be rented for $1.6 million weekly. Why is it so expensive?
