Celeb Yachts- The Most Expensive Ships in Hollywood's Fleet

Celebrities are known to spend and invest in the most expensive, extravagant, and peculiar material items. One especially luxurious purchase that many of the rich and famous spend their millions on would be a yacht. These large, luxurious celeb yachts can cost upwards of tens of millions of dollars, sometimes even much more!
