Billionaire Buys Superyacht That Can Be Controlled By An iPad

Odds and Sods

Here's the latest plaything for the super-rich - a giant three-hulled yacht that cost £15million ($23 million) to make and would fit as comfortably in outer space as it would on the open sea. The 42.5metre-long Adastra is a floating pleasure palace equipped to entertain a billionaire with even the highest of standards.

She is the the new pet of Hong Kong-based shipping magnate Anto Marden and his wife Elaine, whose uses for her may include - among other things - gliding between the two tropical islands they already own off the coast of Indonesia.
