David Gilmour | Astoria Yacht | $3.2million

David Gilmour’s Astoria yacht is unlike most modern luxury yachts owned by famous personalities around the world. Still, we can’t deny that it’s still an exceptional boat. The 27-meter-long boat exudes a degree of retro charm, and it is permanently anchored on the Thames in Hampton, London. Gilmour first saw Astoria when he was driven down the road, and at the time, he asked the driver to stop so he can take a good look at the boat. Yet again, he saw the Astoria in a magazine when during his visit to the dentist. Gilmour decided to call the seller and arranged to view the yacht, and he eventually bought it.

In 1986, the Pink Floyd guitarist thought about using the airy and light boat as his recording studio. In the end, Gilmour and his band began recording in the Astoria even though it wasn’t soundproof. For the next decade, he continued to record albums in the yacht, including his solo album On an Island.
