Conor McGregor’s yacht caught our eye recently and we’ve been keen to get a closer look – and the not-at-all shy MMA legend has delivered.
McGregor has been hanging out in glitzy Monaco for the Formula 1 Grand Prix.
And he’s been blasting around on his $4 million Lamborghini yacht because… that’s the kind of things celebrities do in Monaco.

McGregor posted a video on Tuesday aboard the Lamborghini Tecnomar 63 yacht as it skims over the calm blue waters off Monte Carlo.
The video shows McGregor sitting in the center console with his thumb on the throttle and the other hand on the Lamborghini steering wheel.
It gives us a closer look at the angular dashboard that could easily belong inside a Lamborghini.
And you can just catch a glimpse of the unmistakable “start & stop” button. The yacht has one for each of its 2000HP engines.
They are exactly the same ones that you would find in a Lamborghini.
What we know about Conor McGregor’s yacht
The Tecnomar 63 is inspired by the Lamborghini Sián FKP 37, the hybrid super sports car (check out our video with the Sián a bit further down this page).
The hardtop roof is made to look like those on Lamborghini’s roadster models and not only gives you some shade from the sun, but also adds aerodynamic performance.
McGregor calls his yacht “the supercar of the sea” and he waited about a year after ordering for it to be ready with his custom features.

It’s got about $500,000 of bespoke options on it.
Built in Italy by Tecnomar, the Lambo yacht starts at an already pricey $3.5 million.
Here are the key specs:
- Two V12 bi-turbo 2000HP engines
- Top speed of 60 knots (111km/h, 69mph)
- Can travel 389km (210 nautical miles) at a speed of 40 knots (75km/h)
- Length – 20m (63ft)
Stefano Domenicali, chairman and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini, said the Tecnomar yacht was “the essence of both organizations’ style and expertise”.
“If I had to imagine a Lamborghini on water, this would be my vision. I’m delighted to celebrate this successful collaboration,” he said.
How can Conor McGregor afford a Lamborghini yacht?
The former UFC champ is not shy of a few bucks.
Forbes says he was the 35th highest-paid athlete for 2022 with an income of $43 million.
It’s actually a big drop year-on-year because in 2021, McGregor was number one on that list after raking in $180 million.
That was mainly from his sale of whiskey brand Proper No. Twelve.
So that’s how McGregor can buy a Lamborghini yacht.
