It is not clear where Solaris is going. The destination of the port is not recognized by Marine Traffic. According to SuperYacht Fan, the price of Solaris is $600 million.

Since February 21, the 533-foot yacht Eclipse has been cruising eastwards from St. Martin in the Caribbean. The $700 million SuperYacht Fan was located near the west coast of Africa on Friday.

Eclipse is not listed on the website of Marine Traffic as a destination port, so it is not known where the yacht is going to dock next.

The yachts cost more than $1 billion.
