![michael jordan motor yacht "Joy," Michael Jordan's $80 million yacht, is one of the GOAT's most prized possessions.](https://fanbuzz.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2021/07/Michael-Jordan-Yacht.png?w=1056)
Michael Jordan's $80 Million Yacht Is a Luxury Boat Fit for the GOAT
Let's face it: The average joe, or even most above average joes for that matter, isn't going out and buying 200-foot super yachts. Only a select few of the most successful people in this world can afford such a luxury. Take the greatest player in NBA History, Michael Jordan , for example.
There's pretty much no denying it: Michael Jordan is the GOAT. Not only was he an NBA legend who won six NBA championships with the Chicago Bulls, but the five-time MVP also turned his Jordan brand into a super-successful business, making billions of dollars for Nike and opening the door for other athletes to do the same, like LeBron James. As of today, the billionaire owner of the Charlotte Hornets' net worth puts him on the Forbes list year after year.
Now, Jordan is no stranger to boating. A while back, he bought a massive sport fishing Viking Yacht named Catch 23 . It rocked the Air Jordan 3 sneaker elephant print color scheme, and he commonly used it to compete in fishing tournaments. However, one of his more recent purchase puts his old fishing boat to shame. I mean, it is an $80 million luxury yacht after all.
Below, we'll check out what the North Carolina's native pride and Joy (that's the boat's name, by the way) has to offer.

Coming in at a massive 230 feet, Joy can be spotted miles and miles away. With eight different full-sized cabins onboard, the yacht can house family, friends, or anyone else worthy of staying in the Master Suite with no problem at all. Inside, you'll also find a full bar with a beautiful dining room area and a 270-degree ocean view. Of course, Jordan has also hired some of the world's finest chefs and bartenders as crew members, to serve himself and the guests while out on the water.
Along with an amazing view, the rear deck is fitted with a jacuzzi and a surrounding lounge area for hanging out or tanning. Jordan isn't the kind of person that likes to just sit around though, so it makes sense that there's also a full gym at his disposal to get the blood pumping. Those five-star meals need to get burned off somehow. Additionally, it wouldn't truly be a yacht owned by basketball player Michael Jordan without a full-sized basketball court. He may not play professionally anymore, but that doesn't mean he can't teach his guests a few lessons on the court from time to time.
When it comes down to it, Jordan is a businessman. Because of that, there's also a room that's mainly dedicated to meetings with important clients. The room is fitted with top of the line audio/visual equipment, and a satellite to give a presentation that is nearly impossible to decline. What better way to pitch your ideas than from this luxurious meeting room?
To put things in perspective, this yacht costs around $840,000 each week in order to man the ship and to keep the vessel in seaworthy condition. Not exactly a small price to pay on top of the $80 million price tag, but for the top-of-the-line amenities, it seems to be worth every penny to Jordan. He truly is living the life, pulling up to the beach club on a Caribbean island, ready to take play some 1-on-1 with anyone willing to take on the GOAT.

Michael Jordan’s Yacht: Everything You Want To Know
NBA superstar and arguably the greatest basketball player of all time Michael Jordan retired from the game years ago but still keeps busy doing all kinds of things, including sailing on his yacht . This is no toy, either, as his yacht qualifies as a superyacht and you’ll see why shortly.
Before we get too deep into this it’s worth noting that the yacht we’re covering here may not actually even belong to Michael “Air” Jordan. He chartered it several times and there is a rumor that he purchased it in 2019. But we don’t have 100% confirmation on that so it’s possible this is not Jordan’s yacht at all, just one he really likes. That aside, all of the details about the yacht are still accurate and you’ll see why, even if Jordan didn’t buy this one outright, there’s every reason to understand why he would have, and why he’s chartered it in the past.
What Did Michael Jordan Call His Yacht?
Michael Jordan’s superyacht is called Joy and was launched back in 2016. Of course, that’s just one of his yachts as he actually owns a smaller (but still impressive) sport fishing yacht that he named Catch-23. The name is a clever pun on the familiar saying “Catch-22” and also his jersey number 23 from when he played professional basketball. His fishing yacht cost a cool $8 million so you can imagine what the superyacht Joy must have set him back if he really is the owner. Or you can just read on to find out!
How Much Did Michael Jordan’s Yacht Cost?
![michael jordan motor yacht](https://www.boatsafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/jordan-yacht-4-700x394.webp)
Because this yacht is a remarkable, one of a kind vessel, the owner, if it is Jordan, was willing to pay to ensure he got the best of the best. Is it the most expensive yacht in the world? No, not even close. But at $80 million (some sources even say $90 million) it’s definitely no joke. Joy is not a superyacht most people would be able to afford by any means.
How Big is Michael Jordan’s Yacht?
![michael jordan motor yacht](https://www.boatsafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/jordan-yacht-7-700x833.jpg)
According to most reports, Michael Jordan’s yacht clocks in at a very impressive 230 feet. That’s nowhere near the largest yacht in the world but it’s incredibly large nonetheless and more than twice the size of Shaquille O’Neal’s yacht or Tom Brady’s yacht .
How Fast is Michal Jordan’s Yacht?
With a pair of 1,850-horsepower engines, Joy has a cruising speed of 12 knots. At top speed it can reach 16 knots, making it on par with other yachts of this size in terms of speed. At the size it’s clearly not intended for racing or hitting high speeds.
What’s the Interior of Michael Jordan’s Yacht Like?
![michael jordan motor yacht](https://www.boatsafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/jordan-yacht-8-700x397.webp)
What’s the one feature you’d absolutely expect to find on the deck of the yacht owned by a basketball legend? Joy has what has been called a full sized basketball court for playing while cruising, so long as the motion of the ocean doesn’t make this too uneven. Guess you’ll have to be careful with those rebounds. To be fair, though, when you look at images and videos it only shows the one hoop so it really looks more like a half court than a full basketball court. Not that there’s a problem with that, it’s certainly more than most yachts have.
In addition, the space is easily converted if guests are in the mood for different sports and you can play volleyball or badminton. Heck, you can even toss a football around, there’s enough room. If it seems like that might take up too much room, don’t worry. The entire yacht has five decks so there’s plenty of room for the rust of the luxury features someone like Michael Jordan might want included.
![michael jordan motor yacht](https://www.boatsafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/jordan-yacht-1-700x462.webp)
As you’d expect on a luxury yacht of this size there’s a large beach club at the aft of the vessel with a dive platform and everything you’d expect in your beach club area. However, when the sun goes down this space is easily converted into a club for parties and it’s decked out for just such an occasion. There are video walls, bean bag chairs and a number of video game consoles for having a good time. It also serves as a movie theatre for when you want to gather a group and watch a film. Obviously there’s a large dining room for meals as well.
Obviously, the designers included a fully equipped gym on his yacht as well but unlike some, this is a partially open air gym. That means you can take in views of the ocean and enjoy the fresh air during a workout. Of course, additional health amenities exist as well. There’s a spa, a masseuse, and more plus a crew of 19 to make sure it all runs smoothly. One of those crew members is the private chef as well who is said to have a Michelin star, and as you’d expect the food will be able to meet the luxury of the rest of the boat.
![michael jordan motor yacht](https://www.boatsafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/jordan-yacht-2.webp)
You can travel across the 5 decks either by the spiral staircase or a luxurious glass elevator. This can take you from the gym to quarters where you’ll find seven cabins to accommodate guests. With the VIP you have eight cabins total.
The master suite offers an impressive 270 degree view of the ocean and has a private terrace if you want to go out for a closer look. The owner’s deck is opulent in design and resembles the penthouse of a luxury hotel. It even has his and hers bathrooms so no one needs to fight over who has access to the rain showers. For more private getaways there’s a private office for business meetings and lounge area for dining that are separated from the rest of the vessel.
![michael jordan motor yacht](https://www.boatsafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/jordan-yacht-5-700x350.webp)
You’ll also find four double cabins on board plus one twin cabin and finally a VIP stateroom. In total six time NBA champion has room for 12 guests in addition to the crew. All of the rooms are designed and decorated in a slightly different style so that people who come aboard get a chance to pick a room that appeals to their own personality rather than having a generic room that is the same as everyone else’s.
Elsewhere on board you’ll find a full bar for entertaining as well as a glass-sided deck jacuzzi for relaxing.
Throughout the yacht’s interior you’ll find ocean mosaics, granite finishes and a lot of other opulent decorative touches that give it the sense of being at a resort.
![michael jordan motor yacht](https://www.boatsafe.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/jordan-yacht-6-700x466.webp)
When it comes to cutting loose and having a good time, the people who designed Joy didn’t skimp there, either. The boat has a number of water toys including jet skis and guests can wake board, water ski, kayak and go scuba diving or snorkeling as well. Several tenders can take you to and from shore or wherever else you may need to go.
If you want to slow it down but still have fun, there are tons of inflatables that can be taken out and even a giant waterslide. If things get out of hand and someone gets in trouble don’t worry, Joy even has a rescue boat.
Is Michael Jordan’s Yacht Kept at a Caribbean Island?
Much of the reason people believe that Jordan owns Joy is because he was spotted there at the Caribbean island of St. Barts with the yacht back in 2019. Most of the pics you will find online that show Jordan on the yacht are from this time period and this is where speculation that he purchased the yacht came from.
The Bottom Line
Joy is a luxury superyacht that costs as much as $80 or even $90 million. There’s a rumor that Michael Jordan is the owner of the yacht, and as the first billionaire athlete it’s not hard to believe, but it’s worth noting you can head to a number of yacht charter sites right now and charter this specific yacht for $700,000 per week. Would Michael Jordan let his private yacht be rented out for charters? You can decide that for yourself. Many other sites on the internet are convinced Jordan owns it but we’re not so sure just yet.
Regardless of who owns it, this massive 230 foot vessel has a basketball court on deck that can be converted for other sports or just whatever activities you feel like. There is a huge selection of water toys, space for parties, room for 12 guests, a jacuzzi, a swimming pool, a cinema and a master suite with an incredible 270 degree view of the ocean.
With a top speed of 16 knots and all the features you’d expect from a luxury hotel provided by a staff of 19, whether or not this is owned by Michael Jordan or just enjoyed by the Bulls legend, it’s easy to see why it’s such a highly prized vessel.
My grandfather first took me fishing when I was too young to actually hold up a rod on my own. As an avid camper, hiker, and nature enthusiast I'm always looking for a new adventure.

Inside Michael Jordan $80 million super yacht, with photos
Taking a look at the $80 million super yacht of Michael Jordan, the Chicago Bulls legend and the GOAT to many.

![michael jordan motor yacht Michael Jordan's super yacht, Michael Jordan, Michael Jordan yacht](https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Michael-Jordans-super-yacht-Michael-Jordan-Michael-Jordan-yacht.jpg?w=1200)
There are a ton of perks when you're the richest athlete to ever step foot on Earth. Michael Jordan sold his basketball team for billions, a $29 million mansion that he doesn't mind hasn't been sold for almost a decade, one of the rarest cars in the world … The list goes on.
But one of the most expensive single purchases Jordan ever made with his money to date was on an $80 million yacht named ‘Joy'. What's more, that's not even the only yacht Jordan owns. He also has a $21 million yacht called ‘Mr. Terrible', which is pretty fitting when you compare the two yachts he has to his name.
First acquired by Jordan in 2016, the vessel spans 230 feet in length and outlines at almost 10 feet. Its maximum speed is 16 knots while its cruising speed is 12 knots. He was first spotted cruising with the yacht on his way to the Caribbean island of Saint Barthélemy with some of his closest friends. Lastly, the superstructure is built of Aluminum, the decks are made of Teak wood, and the entire ship is insulated with glass aluminum to accommodate the changing weather and was specially developed by Bannenberg & Rowell Designs.
Amenities inside Michael Jordan's yacht
Michael Jordan named this yacht Joy for a reason. Anything that can bring him or anyone joy can be found inside his yacht. For starters, it comes in five decks, eight cabins, an indoor jacuzzi, a movie theater, a spa, and a stunning dining room. One of the biggest perks of this yacht is the owner's pavilion. This is where you'll find the yacht's penthouse suite, personal office, and a terrace to check out the best views of the ocean.
If you plan to stay active while on the yacht, it has you covered too. It also comes with a gym and an indoor basketball court. After all, what more can you expect from the yacht of one of the greatest basketball players in the world?
When it comes to maintenance, Joy definitely doesn't come cheap. There's a crew of around 19 people onboard the ship 24/7 and costs $800,000 a week to maintain as per Marca . Luckily, this yacht isn't exclusive to Jordan or his friends and family. In fact, anyone can rent Joy for a week. All you'll need is $840,000!
Take a look below at some of the pictures of Michael Jordan's super yacht.

A Closer Look at Michael Jordan’s $8 Million Yacht
April 14, 2022 by Martin Banks • Print Story
Michael Jordan, the owner of the Charlotte Hornets and possibly the greatest basketball player of all-time, dropped the bag on an impressive yacht in 2021. Named Catch 23, it cost a whopping $8 million and currently sits in the harbor of Jupiter, Florida.
The name has a triple meaning. It invokes the famous book and old saying "Catch 22" while integrating the boat's main function — fishing — and Jordan's iconic basketball number, 23.
This yacht is just the latest example of Jordan's competitive nature and propensity to drop serious dough on his various hobbies. Aside from his accomplishments on the basketball court, Jordan is an avid gambler, golfer, and accomplished fisherman, participating in deep-sea fishing tournaments in the Atlantic and Caribbean.
Let's take a closer look at Catch 23's features and see what all the fuss is about.
Aboard Catch 23
Catch 23 is a Viking 80 made by Viking Yachts, one of the most prestigious yacht manufacturers in the world. It's a 2018 model with some balanced measurements:
- 84 feet long - 103 tons - Standard MTU naval engine - Tops out at 40 knots (about 48 mph) - Range of over 500 nautical miles - 2,600-gallon fuel capacity - Fits eight guests and two crew members
The boat's hull has an elephant wrap with a blue, white, and grey color scheme. These colors invoke the Jordan 3 basketball shoe and his college days at the University of North Carolina, where he rocked Tar Heel blue as a promising young NBA prospect.
The deck is designed for functionality, with a standard layout and plenty of seats and storage to handle a deep-sea fishing expedition. As you will see, Catch 23 is more of a hobby vessel than a refuge for relaxation. Still, the interior has enough luxurious features to make up for it.
The interior has a pleasing design, with white leather seating and smooth hardwood tables. There are couches for lounging, booths, and bar seats for eating, and an impressive kitchen with white marble countertops.
The hangout areas and sleeping arrangements comfortably fit 10 people (although the master bedroom takes up most of the space). The bathroom has a sizable shower, making hygiene a much easier task than on other ships.
Not that Jordan needs to watch his spending — he has a net worth of over $2 billion — but he did overpay for Catch 23. The vessel notably cost $2 million above the Viking 80's original value for two reasons: the custom design and the overall spike in boat prices. Boat prices have risen by almost 10% in recent years, enticing many people to sell their boats just to break even. We don't think Jordan will have this problem, but other boat owners should be aware of this trend.
Catch 23's Performance
Catch 23 isn't a fancy yacht by upper-class standards. You can certainly find more extravagant yachts in the water, including another owned by Jordan. His other yacht is a 230-footer named Joy that cost $80 million, but he can't exercise his competitive spirit on such a leisurely behemoth. This time, he opted for a sleek multipurpose vessel, just like his style of play on the court.
Catch 23 has a custom frame built for both leisure and competitive fishing. It has plenty of space for a small crew and all the capabilities to handle deep-sea fishing. Jordan himself caught a 442-pound marlin as captain of the ship at the 2020 Big Rock Fishing Tournament in North Carolina. He also caught a 25-pound mahi-mahi (dolphinfish) at the same tournament in 2021. Those catches earned him eighth and fourth place, respectively.
Notorious for his obsessive winner's mentality, Jordan made a point to win a fishing event with his prized vessel. He accomplished that goal by taking first place at the 2021 Buccaneer sail-fishing tournament in North Palm Beach, Florida. Although Jordan wasn't the captain, he reeled in two of the seven sailfish Catch 23 caught during the two-day event.
When he's not participating in world-class fishing tournaments, you might spot Jordan lounging on Catch 23 at its designated spot in the Jupiter harbor, casting lines and enjoying the boat's luxurious features.
Find Your Catch 23
While you probably don't have $8 million lying around to spend on a high-class yacht, you might have the funds to invest in a reliable compact fishing vessel. Boating is a challenging but fulfilling hobby, with energetic and relaxing features that everyone can enjoy. If you've always wanted a boat, start your search now and you might find your own Catch 23.

1. The Catch 23 yacht is powered by MTU engines.
Our Fort Lauderdale marine diesel mechanics are in shock at the speeds that Micheal Jordan’s fishing boat can reach. Catch 23 has a max speed of about 40 knots with a range of more than 500 nm. Depending on the load as well as other environmental factors, the Catch 23 fishing boat can effortlessly cruise at 30 knots.
2. The Catch 23 yacht was built and designed by Viking Yachts in 2018.
Viking Yachts is a premier yacht manufacturer in Riviera Beach, FL. They specialize in convertible yachts as well as open and motor yachts. Jordan’s fishing boat is a convertible Viking 80EB sport fisher motor yacht. Viking Yachts designed both the interior, exterior, and engineering behind this impressive fishing boat.
3. Michael Jordan uses Catch 23 for fishing tournaments.
Michael Jordan is definitely not a newbie when it comes to fishing. He frequently uses the Catch 23 fishing boat in a variety of tournaments. In June of 2020, Jordan participated in the Big Rock Blue Marlin Tournament and reeled in a 442.3-pound marlin.

5. Catch 23 is worth $8 million.
That’s right, Michael Jordan’s yacht is worth $8 million, which is pocket change for someone with a $1.6 billion net worth according to Forbes. 2 He is famously considered the richest former professional athlete in the world. After winning 6 titles with the Chicago Bulls, he deserves this boat.
6. Catch 23 was named after Jordan himself.
For fishing and boat enthusiasts, naming your yacht is serious business. Jordan used a clever pun to name his vessel, playing off the common phrase “catch-22,” tying it into his off-the-court fishing hobby with “catch,” and incorporating his jersey number, 23.
7. Michael Jordan’s fishing yacht matches his plane.
It wouldn’t be a luxury fishing boat if there wasn’t a matching plane to complete the set. Both feature the famous elephant print from the Air Jordan 3 sneakers, released in 1988, as well as Jordan’s signature panther on the stern to match his private jet.
8. The boat is docked in Jupiter, Florida.
You can find Jordan’s 80-foot fishing boat docked in Jupiter, Florida most of the time. Catch 23 can often be spotted around North Carolina where Michael Jordan enjoys participating in non-profit fishing tournaments and other national fishing competitions.
9. Catch 23 includes several rooms and amenities.
Michael Jordan’s Catch 23 yacht has a virtual conference area, 2 dining spaces, and a J lounge where Jordan and his guests can hang out between catches. The sleeping quarters include the main suite with a king-sized bed, 2 staterooms with queen-sized beds, and 2 additional staterooms with bunk-style beds, or berths. Each of the 5 staterooms also has its own shower stalls and there’s even a washer and dryer in the companionway.
Additionally, the Catch 23 yacht also features a centralized seawater system, dual freshwater pumps, Veem S-class propellers as well as a manual backup. 3
10. Catch 23 isn’t Jordan’s only boat.
The famous basketball player also owns another boat that is worth roughly $80 million. The 230-ft mega yacht includes a full-sized basketball court as well as 8 cabins, a full gym, and a jacuzzi.

Michael Jordan’s Yacht Life. Inside the NBA Great’s Multimillion-Dollar Fleet of Yachts
Michael Jordan is enjoying smooth sailing since agreeing to sell his stake in the NBA’s Charlotte Hornets for a reported $3 billion. The former NBA champ has at least three multimillion-dollar yachts — an $80 million yacht called Joy, another yacht called Mr. Terrible worth $21 million, and one named Catch-23.
![michael jordan motor yacht](https://finurah.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/GettyImages-1241526923-600x400.jpg)
Inside ‘Joy’
Joy measures 230 feet (70 meters) in length. Bannenberg & Rowell Design created Joy, which has a top speed of roughly 16 knots and a cruising speed of about 12 knots.
![michael jordan motor yacht](https://finurah.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Untitled-design-5-600x315.jpg)
The super yacht, launched in 2016 and purchased by Jordan in 2019, has a total of five decks, each built of teak wood. The owner’s pavilion, which gives a 270-degree view of the ocean and features a chic owner’s lounge for enjoying a luxuriant yet private moment, is one of this opulent ship’s key attractions. The master suite is exquisite, and the bedrooms have mosaic skylights that overlook the ocean. Additionally, there is a stunning owner’s office.
The yacht can accommodate a crew of 19 and roughly 12 passengers. The eight lavish cabins, which are almost as opulent as the master suites, are available for guests to stay in. All of the bathrooms include granite finishes and rainfall showers. To provide visitors with the most memorable experience possible, there are spa rooms equipped with an indoor jacuzzi and sauna. A VIP suite and twin rooms are lavishly provided for on the yacht.
![michael jordan motor yacht](https://finurah.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Untitled-design2-600x315.jpg)
And, of course, it has a gym and an indoor basketball court.
To adapt to shifting weather conditions, the ship is built with an aluminum superstructure and glass aluminum insulation.
Among the trips Jordon has taken on the yacht was with some of his closest friends to the Caribbean island of Saint Barthélemy.
Inside ‘Mr. Terrible’
Although it is four times smaller than Joy, Mr. Terrible is also one of the most luxurious ships now cruising the seas, and by most measures, its overall length of 154 feet is sufficient to deem it a super yacht.
![michael jordan motor yacht](https://finurah.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Untitled-design3-1-600x315.jpg)
Mega yachts are essentially private yachts that are 24 meters or larger in length and are so big that a professional crew is necessary to manage them.
Mr. Terrible has an indoor bar, and additionally, there is a space for dining outside as well as a dining area within with a real chandelier. On top of that, Mr. Terrible has a design that was influenced by both Art Deco and tropical themes, as evidenced by the use of tropical wood in its walls and on a staircase made of Bubinga, a tropical African hardwood.
![michael jordan motor yacht](https://finurah.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Untitled-design4-1-600x315.jpg)
It is unclear when Jordan purchased Mr. Terrible.
Inside Catch-23
Jordan also owns a fishing yacht called Catch-23; his Chicago Bulls playing number was 23. The yacht cost $8 million .
Viking Yachts produced the Catch 23 luxury motor boat in 2018.
![michael jordan motor yacht](https://finurah.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Untitled-design5-1-600x315.jpg)
The sport boat has a top speed of 40 knots and a range of more than 500 nautical miles. This magnificent yacht is outfitted with cutting-edge technology and facilities to provide a pleasant and entertaining experience for everybody aboard. The 80-foot yacht’s interior is built for luxury and comfort, with high-end finishes, comfy furniture, and cutting-edge entertainment systems. The boat can easily accommodate up to eight people and a crew of two. In 2020, Catch 23 was used to compete in the Big Rock Fishing Tournament, where Jordan traveled to Morehead City, North Carolina. Jordan competed in the nonprofit event to raise money for local charities.
Inside M’Brace
It is rumored that Jordan also owns a yacht called M’Brace, which is worth $115 million. According to Majorca Daily Bulletin, the yacht was sold in December 2022, allegedly to the basketball legend. The yacht can accommodate 12 guests and a crew of 24.

Everything You Want to Know about Michael Jordan’s Yacht
For a lot of people out there, Michael Jordan was the biggest sports star of the 1990s. This is because he led the Chicago Bulls to 3 championship wins from 1991 to 1993, retired from the NBA to play some minor league baseball, and then led the Chicago Bulls to another 3 championships from 1996 to 1998. Summed up, it is no wonder that a lot of people see him as the greatest basketball player of all time, which is something that comes with a huge amount of respect, as shown by nicknames such as Air Jordan.
With that said, it is interesting to note that Jordan seems to have a fair amount of business skill as well. Certainly, he came out of the NBA as a millionaire , seeing as how he made a total of $90 million over the course of his NBA career. However, that served as a springboard and nothing more than that, as shown by what Jordan has managed to make based on the reputation that he built up. For example, Jordan was famous enough that he wound up playing the lead character in the 1996 movie called Space Jam , which might have met with a mixed response from the critics but was nonetheless such a huge success that it became the single most successful basketball movie ever. Furthermore, it is important to note that Jordan still makes tens of millions on Nike royalties on an annual basis because his shoes are still selling to a huge number of fans out there. Finally, Jordan actually became a billionaire in relatively recent times because he purchased the Charlotte Bobcats for $175 million, which is relevant because said franchise has seen a huge upswing to value to something along the lines of $750 million.
As a result, it is safe to say that Jordan has a lot of money to spend in various lavish ways. For example, he has a private jet that has been painted Carolina blue. Furthermore, he has spent more than $12 million building a home in Florida, which was in addition to real estate properties elsewhere. Finally, Jordan owns a yacht called Mr. Terrible, which is well, the exact opposite of what its name sounds like.
What Is There to Know About Michael Jordan’s Yacht?
Perhaps unsurprisingly, Mr. Terrible is one of the most luxurious yachts that can be found out there on the sea. In total, it measures 154 feet in length, which is enough by most ways of reckoning to make it count as a mega yacht. For those who are curious, mega yachts are essentially private yachts measuring 24 meters or more, which is big enough that they actually need a professional crew on-board. Something that more or less restricts them to a very small group of potential clients, which in turn, means that each example is very much one of a kind with nothing else that is exactly like it.
Of course, mega-yachts being mega-yachts, this means that there is more to it than just its length. For example, one of the reasons for its construction is its use on fishing trips, as shown by the facilities that can be found on-board. Moreover, it is interesting to note that Mr. Terrible actually comes with a fairly powerful underwater camera, meaning that Jordan and his guests can use it to gaze down at what is happening in the waters beneath them.
With that said, Mr. Terrible boasts other ways to support rest and relaxation as well. For example, there is a bar where people can sip their favorite beverages. Furthermore, there is an area for outdoor dining as well as an indoor dining room with an actual chandelier. On top of this, Mr. Terrible boasts a design that has drawn inspiration from Art Deco as well as tropical themes, as shown by the fact that it has incorporated tropical wood into its walls as well as a staircase that has incorporated bubinga, which is a particular kind of hardwood with a rich color that projects an almost palpable presence.
Summed up, Jordan’s Mr. Terrible is a remarkable demonstration of the yacht-builder’s art because he can afford to pay for the best. Something that stands as a visible reminder of how Jordan has managed to turn his basketball reputation into a net worth that makes him the third wealthiest black person from the United States.

Michael Jordan’s $80 Million Yacht ‘Joy’ Requires Staggering $800,000-a-Week Maintenance
![michael jordan motor yacht](https://theluxurylifestylemagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/michael-jordan-superyacht-joy-feature-1050x656.webp)
Michael Jordan, the world’s wealthiest athlete, has made some lavish purchases since his retirement from basketball, including acquiring superyachts. In 2016, he purchased the extravagant superyacht ‘Joy’ for $80 million. This impressive vessel stretches over 230 feet in length and 10 feet in width, offering a range of amenities such as eight cabins, an indoor jacuzzi, a movie theater, a spa, and a dining area.
Additional features on ‘Joy’ include the owner’s pavilion, a penthouse suite, a personal office, and a terrace with breathtaking ocean views. Reflecting MJ’s lifestyle, the yacht even boasts a basketball court and gym.
![michael jordan motor yacht](https://theluxurylifestylemagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/image-33.png)
Maintaining such a luxurious yacht comes at a substantial cost, requiring a crew of 19 people. The weekly expenses alone amount to $800,000, totaling $3.2 million per month. However, ‘Joy’ has been available for rental to anyone willing to pay $840,000 a week.
![michael jordan motor yacht](https://theluxurylifestylemagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/image-32.png)
This extravagant expenditure showcases how Michael Jordan has accumulated immense wealth. He recently joined the Forbes 400 list of the richest people in the United States, despite retiring from basketball two decades ago.
Despite his retirement from basketball, Michael Jordan continues to express his competitive spirit in various activities, including fishing. He recently participated in the 32nd MidAtlantic fishing tournament, where rough weather conditions led to only 11 boats venturing out on the final day. Despite the challenges, the event saw three dozen winners sharing a $5.79 million prize.
![michael jordan motor yacht](https://theluxurylifestylemagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/image-31.png)
Jordan’s boat, “Catch 23,” secured third place with a 75-pound catch, earning a cash prize of $462,318. Christopher Little’s “Talkin Trash” claimed the overall win in the Tuna Division, while Chip Caruso’s “Pipe Dreamer” dominated the Blue Marlin division.
Through his ventures in fishing and 23XI Racing, Jordan continues to channel his competitive nature outside of basketball. As the world’s richest athlete, he has even more resources to indulge in his passions, following the sale of the Charlotte Hornets for $3 billion.

The Cast of Transformers One, Ranked By Net Worth
Robert downey jr.'s remarkable journey, from rock bottom to box office gold, young sheldon's big bank theory: how much young sheldon cast was paid per episode, quick links, an extraordinary design and built, a horde of classy conveniences, a plethora of options for entertainment.
NCB champion Michael Jordan has become famous and prosperous during his basketball career. He owns multiple luxury estates, cars, and superyachts. His $80 million yacht is of particular importance in this list. MJ is listed as one of the wealthiest people in the USA and worldwide. Thus, it comes as no surprise that he might own an $80 million luxury yacht. This is not the only yacht he holds. He has a smaller yacht called Mr. Terrible, which costs about $21 million. This yacht is also pretty impressive , with numerous extravagant conveniences. However, it is nowhere close to the luxury amenities and enormous space that the $80 million boat offers.
The following offers a peek inside Michael Jordan’s $80 million yachts.
The $80million superyacht that is often associated with the famous basketball player Michael Jordan is called Joy. This vessel is 230 feet or 70 meters in length, and the outline is about 9.78 feet or 3 meters long. The maximum speed that Joy can reach is about 16 knots, and the cruising rate is about 12 knots.

The exterior design of the Joy was developed by Bannenberg & Rowell Design . It has a hull made of steel and a superstructure that is built of aluminum . The decks are made of teak wood, and Studio Indigo has done the extravagant interior designing.
The Joy superyacht is a newly made vessel launched in 2016. It comes in a total of 5 decks, each assigned for different activities and purposes. One of the main attractions of this luxury vessel is the owner’s pavilion. It comes with a beautiful master suite and bedrooms with oceanic mosaics as the skylight. There is also an owner’s office space with an extraordinary view.
The entire pavilion offers a 270 degrees view of the ocean and has a classy owner’s lounge for having a frivolous but private moment. The whole ship has been provided with glass insulation to have a comfortable stay during extreme heat or cold.
That is not all; Michael Jordan is known for being hospitable. His yacht has provision for about 12 guests and a crew of nineteen. Friends can come over and stay in the seven luxurious cabins, which are almost as exquisite as the master bedrooms. The bathrooms are all of the granite finish and with rainfall showers . There are spa rooms with a jacuzzi and sauna to offer the guests the best experience of their lives. The yacht makes space generously for a VIP stateroom and twin cabins.
The colossal space allows its passengers a variety of lifestyles. For example, guests can choose sports, domesticity, beach life, or nightlife depending on their mood. The best part of this yacht and why MJ selected this one is the basketball court that it makes space for on the fourth deck. It goes beyond saying that Michael Jordan must be in a mood to play basketball on board even while cruising.
Playing a favorite sport while in the middle of an ocean makes it an exclusive experience. The fourth deck has been built so that it can be converted into any kind of game stack. Sports like football and badminton can also be a source of entertainment when you are onboard.
The main lounge is perhaps the most happening place on this superyacht , especially when the sun goes down. It comes with fancy bars and the most exquisite furniture collection to raise this ship’s status quo. There is a jacuzzi on the aft deck for a more private bath session or relaxation time. The yacht comes with an elevator that will take you to the topmost level, arranged to be a beach club with nightlife entertainment options.
Joy is a unique experience with its wide range of watersports options. It has tender boats, about five paddle bots, four seaboards, water skis, kayaks, and wakeboards. It also stations inflatables and trampolines for extra amusement, and there are fishing scuba equipment and gear for a mind-blowing underwater experience.
Besides, there is ample speculation upon whether Michael Jordan owns this superyacht. But since this yacht has been unavailable for chartering for almost a year, MJ has probably bought it or leased it. Chartering this super vessel comes at a handsome price of $840000 per week . This would be easily affordable to the basketball champion and celebrity Michael Jordan, who has an impressive net worth of approximately $2 billion.

Michael Jordan’s new super yacht in Mallorca
Mega yachts are flocking back to the balearics.
M/Y Mbrace off Puerto Portals this weekend. | M Stadler
The original owner of the yacht was Sir Lloyd Marshall Dorfman CVO CBE, a British entrepreneur and philanthropist . He founded Travelex (today part of Finablr), the world’s largest retailer of foreign exchange.
According to The Sunday Times Rich List in 2020, Dorfman is worth £720 million .
Dorfman paid a price of £87 million for the yacht, or - with historical exchange rate differences - $115 million. Its annual running costs are in the region of $10 million . The price of a yacht can vary greatly depending on a number of factors, such as the size, age and level of luxury of the yacht, as well as the materials and technology used in its construction.
![michael jordan motor yacht michael jordan motor yacht](https://md.gsstatic.es/sfAttachPlugin/123091.jpg)
The interior of M’BRACE’ is designed by Harrison Eidsgaard. The yacht can accommodate 12 guests and a crew of 24.
Dorfman sold her in December 2022, allegedly to the basketball legend Michael Jordan who already owned the super yacht Catch 23.

People can't believe how much Michael Jordan's weekly maintenance bill comes to on $80 million superyacht
Did you expect chartering a super-yacht to be cheap.
Kit Roberts
Michael Jordan spends a staggering amount to charter a super yacht.
Jordan is one of the richest athletes in the world and used his NBA wealth to invest and build a massive portfolio worth over $1 billion.
The yacht is owned by Indian businessman Sameer Gehlaut, and is reportedly worth around $80 million.
If that sounds like a lot for a boat, it's probably because it has more amenities and luxuries than most houses.
These include not one but two jacuzzis, a dining room, a dining room, a beach club, movie theatre, a gym, and a spa.
There is also, of course, a basketball court on board as well.
It's not just that either, as the boat also has a private chef assigned to it, as well as eight cabins for guests.
In total, the yacht has a crew of 19 on board, including a captain and sailors as well as hospitality staff.
Joy is available to charter for people who are in the business of spending their time hanging out on luxury yachts, and can afford it.
![michael jordan motor yacht Joy is chartered out by NBA star Michael Jordan.](https://images.ladbible.com/resize?type=webp&quality=70&width=3840&fit=contain&gravity=auto&url=https://images.ladbiblegroup.com/v3/assets/blt949ea8e16e463049/blte159493f30e90352/660c15c3c03e56ff0d70a7b6/michael-jordan-superyacht-joy-1.webp)
Among them is Michael Jordan, himself the owner of several yachts of his own.
But it seems that Joy offers something that the basketball legend likes a lot, as he is willing to fork out a staggering amount to charter the 70 metre boat.
So how much is he willing to spend to rent out the boat?
Well, it comes to a whopping $780,000 a week to charter the yacht.
Yes, you read that right, nearly $800k a week. That's a fair wedge of cash to be dropping on spending just one week on an enormous yacht.
Though given the amazing amenities on board the boat, the price tag perhaps shouldn't come at much of a surprise.
![michael jordan motor yacht Of course the yacht has a basketball court!](https://images.ladbible.com/resize?type=webp&quality=70&width=3840&fit=contain&gravity=auto&url=https://images.ladbiblegroup.com/v3/assets/blt949ea8e16e463049/blt416d684482a2c1d6/660c15dc35d72852fc20aa10/michael-jordan-superyacht-joy-5-768x435.webp)
Even covering the cost of running such a vessel must be sky high.
You have to pay all of your staff's wages, which means covering wages for a crew of 19 people on the ship.
Then there's also the costs of actually physically keeping the boat running.
That includes buying fuel to power the twin engines.
This isn't just filling up your car - Joy's fuel tanks hold a whopping 100,000 litres (around 26,400 gallons) of fuel according to yachtcharterfleet.com.
So one tank of fuel at the current price of $5.66 a gallon in the Bahamas, where Joy is located, is just under $150,000.
No wonder chartering Joy out is so expensive!

Michael Jordan 'very excited' as NASCAR making up for $3billion void
M ichael Jordan is 61 years old, but he has not lost his competitive edge. And his business partner Denny Hamlin believes the NBA icon's venture into the world of NASCAR has filled a void after selling his stake in the Charlotte Hornets for $3 billion last year.
Six-time NBA champion Jordan entered into sports ownership with the Hornets in 2010, buying the team for $275 million. And although his 13 years in charge did not deliver success on the court, but he clearly caught the bug for team ownership and launched Cup Series team 23XI with NASCAR star Hamlin in 2020.
The team is in its fourth season in the Cup Series and it has emerged as one of the strongest forces in the sport, with Tyler Reddick claiming his second win of the season on Monday at Michigan International Speedway and Bubba Wallace in contention for a playoff spot.

Hamlin, who drives the No. 11 Toyota for Joe Gibbs Racing, said in Monday's post-race press conference Jordan is loving his role in the world of NASCAR and it is fueling his competitive juices in the absence of a stake in the Hornets.
"He's obviously very excited. I think that you know, him coming to Michigan, you know, he's got a schedule of races that he's going to be going through here in the playoffs as well. This is a fun hobby for him, a fun business for him, right?" Hamlin said. "This fills in a lot of gaps of the competitiveness he has lost by not being a part of the Hornets anymore.
"You know, he's about winning, we had conversations, ownership meetings where we're trying to figure out directions with what we're going to do with this, that, and the other. It's always been, 'I want to win'. Sixty-something years old, 'I want to win'."
Reddick came out on top in Brooklyn in Monday's delayed race after fending off a challenge from William Byron in a second overtime to leapfrog Kyle Larson and climb to the top of the Cup Series standings with two regular-season races remaining.
Reddick, 28, says having Jordan and Hamlin advising him has been invaluable as he closes in on a career-best Cup Series season.

"I saw week in and week out, racing against both their cars, the speed they bring to the table, the culture that they have at 23XI. It's important to me. It takes everything to have a really good team," Reddick said.
"I knew that as time would continue to go on, they would continue to climb. I feel like we're really seeing it now, a lot of weeks.
"I also just wanted to sink my feet into the ground that I know I'd be there for a while, a number of years, and build a program, build our way to the top. Felt really good about that with 23XI."

NBA legend Michael Jordan attends Michigan NASCAR race

BROOKLYN, MI – Chicago Bulls legend Michael Jordan was at Sunday’s NASCAR race at Michigan International Speedway.
Jordan is the co-owner of 23XI Racing, which fields a pair of Toyotas in the Cup Series – No. 23 Bubba Wallace and No. 45 Tyler Reddick. Both are sponsored by McDonald’s this week.
Jordan was seen in Wallace’s pit box during the race. The start of the FireKeepers Casino 400 was delayed more than two hours for rain, and then halted for more rain on Lap 51. NASCAR postponed the finish until 11 a.m. Monday.

In enemy territory (Detroit Pistons country), Jordan saw both of his cars have early success. Reddick started second and will restart Monday in fifth position.
Wallace will restart Monday in second place. He made daring, three-wide move to take the lead on Lap 34, as Denny Hamlin and Kyle Larson were side by side for the lead. On Lap 37, Hamlin spun out behind Wallace off Turn 4 and into the infield grass.
Most of the leaders pit, but some drivers stayed out – including Ryan Blaney, who ended up winning Stage 1. Stage 2 hadn’t begun when the rain started.
23XI Racing was formed for the 2021 season, a collaboration between Jordan and Hamlin.
Wallace earned the team its first win in October 2021, although Jordan wasn’t in attendance. He saw his team win in person for the first time this April at Talladega Superspeedway.
No word on whether Jordan will be back on Monday to watch.
