Dubai’s 27-Year-Old Tycoon Makes History With Amadea Purchase And Pickleball Pad

A 27-year-old Dubai billionaire, Abbas Sajwani, has become the world’s youngest superyacht owner after winning a sealed-bid auction for the seized Amadea, paying about $187 million—roughly a $138 million discount off its $325 million value. Sajwani, who previously toured Amadea in 2020 and later bought a smaller yacht, now uses Amadea as a floating home and office, entertaining VIPs on weekdays and hosting weekend gatherings, with lavish features including a 33-foot infinity pool, multiple spas, and a helipad that was recently converted into a pickleball court.
