Some say it’s upwards of $800M… but I hardly believe it

Fun Facts
👤 WHO’S THE OWNER?:
The strongest evidence linking Griffin to “PROJECT DEFY” lies in the name. Griffin also owns the 94-meter Feadship motor yacht ”DEFY”, which was launched in 2021.
In 2024, Griffin acquired full ownership of ”VIVA”, (which was originally commissioned with a partner, Frank Fertitta) and renamed the vessel ”DEFY”.
It’s a standard practice for owners to keep the name name.
This means that if the 94-meter “DEFY” is put for sale in the next upcoming month or year, or even suddenly changes name (probably meaning that an off-market sale occurred), then it’s pretty safe to assume that “PROJECT DEFY” is really his.
2️⃣ SHE HAS A SISTER?
She draw similarities to the Lurssen Megayacht “ALAIYA”, with her full-height curved windows forward and on her upper deck.
