A vessel named Mansion Yacht was shown at the 60th annual Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show , and people have been buzzing about it ever since. According to FOX Business, the yacht is the first ever to be made entirely from stainless steel.
"It does a whole bunch of other things that a normal yacht doesn't do, so it doesn't replace an ocean-going yacht, but it definitely is a great addition to the yacht family," Bruno Edwards of Mansion Yachts told FOX Business.
Edwards told Business Insider that the company's base 9,000-square-foot model has an asking price of $12 million. And apparently, "a few billionaires " had already expressed their interests.
