Billionaires sail into Cannes on mega-yachts for film festival

Billionaires sailed into Cannes for the French film festival.

David Geffen’s $200 million Rising Sun has been seen near Antibes, and boats of Russian rich guys — Roman Abramovich’s Eclipse and Alisher Usmanov’s Dilbar — have also been spotted.

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones’ yacht, Bravo Eugenia, named for his wife, is also on the Riviera. Jones got the $250 million boat in December, and it includes a helicopter pad and a “beach club,” according to Forbes.

The publication, which keeps tabs on big boats in the area, reports Sailing Yacht A, a $500 million superyacht designed by Philippe Starck, and owned by Andrey Melnichenko, is also headed toward town.
