James Packer, the ex-fiance of Mariah Carey, has a $200 million superyacht with so many water toys that its tender garage has a 1,500-litre refueling station. The billionaire’s 340-foot-long vessel features a nightclub with a virtual aquarium, a cinema and an open-air gym.
IJE, an extraordinary explorer yacht that’s elegantly designed –
At 354 feet, the $200 million Ije Yacht is impressive and packs quite a punch. The boat comes with space for 22 guests in 11 cabins and is serviced by a crew of 28. Commissioned by seasoned yacht owner Packer, who had given a brief for an elegant yacht that could also carry three large tenders. In the past, Packer has owned several impressive boats like a 180-foot Amels superyacht purchased for $47 million and a 170-foot Amels, the Seahorse, which were both sold later. He also owned a 288-foot ice-breaker, the Arctic P, that he gifted to his sister in 2017. His fleet once included the 165-footer Mangusta named Z Ellerston, and a 150-foot Leopard called Z Sydney. Done with smaller ships, he makes the most of the boat he is left with, his gigantic 354-feet luxury vessel Ije.
Who is James Packer?
Worth $2.8 billion per Forbes, Packer owes much of his wealth to the casino business that he stepped down from in March 2018, the Crown Resorts. The 56-year-old is one of the richest persons in Australia who comes from wealth as he was the son of Kerry Packer AC, a media mogul. He inherited the family wealth and companies like the Consolidated Press Holdings Limited, as well as investments in Crown Resorts and others. More interesting than how he acquired his wealth is how he splurges it.

With her 108 metres (354 ft) length, she currently ranks 34th on the list of largest yachts in the world. She is also the longest yacht ever built by Benetti.
IJE yacht interior
Benetti not only built the IJE yacht, but they also worked on designing the yacht interior. The layout is reminiscent of a cozy beach house with luxurious elements that take the design to the next level.
There is a private owner’s deck onboard IJE with access to a separate side deck.
Twenty guests can stay on board IJE yacht in ten luxurious and spacious suites. The yacht has a dedicated movie theatre, nightclub, and an elevator between the four decks.
The gym is not only equipped with the latest equipment, but it is also a real eye-catcher and is located on the lower deck of the IJE yacht.

A well-trained crew of up to 28 people takes care of everything in and around the vessel.

Two MTU twin engines power IJE with 2,880 kW each. She achieves top speeds of 21 knots and can reach distances of over 6,500 nautical miles at a cruising speed of 16 knots.
The 108-meter yacht is also equipped with an additional system from Schottel, which allows low-noise and low-vibration auxiliary propulsion that guarantees better maneuverability.
IJE has a fuel tank of up to 365,000 liters and a freshwater tank of 85,000 liters, which is an advantage for longer distances.
The exterior of IJE was designed by world-renowned ship designer RWD, whose goal is to create each yacht with “exceptional beauty and elegance.”
There is space for two tenders up to 12 meters long that can be launched by crane on the foredeck.
A fireplace was installed as a focal point on the bridge deck, and on the main deck, a pool surrounded by spacious open-air dining with an additional lounge and bar welcomes guests. A side garage opens up and becomes a berth for four jet skis.
The IJE yacht also carries water toys such as seabobs, water skis, kayaks, and snorkeling equipment. The designated observation deck offers stunning views of the surrounding ocean and landscape.
IJE was transferred from Benetti to the owner for a price of approximately US $200 million in 2019. The superyacht is currently listed for sale at a price of US $175 million.

Australian billionaire James Packer has been pictured enjoying a day out on his superyacht in Italy with none other than legendary actor Robert De Niro and his family.

While Packer and Oscar-winning actor De Niro seem unlikely company for a European sea jaunt, the pair have a history as friends and business partners.
Their relationship first because public when Packer bought a stake in the actor’s world renowned Japanese restaurant and hotel chain , Nobu, in 2015.
It was also reported in 2016 by Forbes that the luxury-loving pair had teamed up to build a resort in Barbuda, in the Eastern Caribbean.
Featuring a nightclub, 11 cabins, swimming pool and a theatre, c asino mogul Packer purchased IJE in 2019 for $200 million. It is named after his three children, Indigo, Jackson and Emmanuelle.
Despite trying to sell the jaw-dropping vessel last year, Sunday Confidential reported in March that Packer had decided to keep the yacht , having received just “one paltry low-ball offer” since he put it on the market.
The reclusive billionaire recently became $3.2 billion richer after cashing out the astronomical value of his Crown shares .
Shareholders in the casino company unanimously voted on May 20 in favour of a takeover by US private equity giant Blackstone, which offered them $13.10 a share.
That offered Crown shareholders a huge 32 per cent premium on the closing price of Crown shares on November 18, 2021 of $9.90 a share. That was the last trading day prior to Crown receiving an acquisition proposal from Blackstone at a price of $12.50 a share.
More Coverage
It meant that shareholders in the company received a healthy premium for the $8.9 billion takeover on June 24.
The biggest beneficiary, naturally, was Crown’s biggest shareholder – Packer — who is already one of Australia’s richest people with an estimated net worth of $5.72 billion.
For his massive 37 per cent stake in the company, he reportedly walked away with a $3.36 billion payday which, like for all Crown shareholders, is more than what his shares were previously worth.
