Check out Jerry Jones’ new, state of the art, $250 million toy
What did you get for Christmas?
Oh, really? That’s cute.
Jerry Jones, the Dallas Cowboys’ billionaire owner and general manager, bought himself a super yacht, according to multiple reports in the rarefied air of the yachting industry.
The $250 million yacht is 360 feet long and includes, among other luxurious accoutrements, a helipad. Not sure if the Jones’ chopper can now go straight from The Star in Frisco to the ocean, but you can’t have everything.
The yacht, however, comes close to having everything. It’s named Bravo Eugenia, after Jones’ wife, Gene Jones.
According to YachtHarbour.com, the Jones family took ownership of the yacht on Dec. 20 before a Christmas cruise in Scandinavia.
The Dutch shipyard Oceanco built the fuel efficient and eco friendly vessel. It includes a storage area for water toys, a space with a sauna, steam room, massage room, plunge pool and rain shower, a lower-deck gym and a beach club.
“The interior is a sophisticated, elegant, contemporary design that features light maple wood and white pearl lacquer with contrasting accents of walnut and ebony,” according to an Oceanco press release.
Jones, 76, is worth about $6.8 billion, according to Forbes.com. The Cowboys are the most valuable sports franchise in the world, according to Forbes, at an estimated $5 billion.
