What would you do with $53 million?

If visions of sailing the world while lazing around between your expansive sun deck, al fresco dining room, and marble jacuzzi tub come to mind, your dream yacht is currently for sale.

The Athena, a 295-foot super yacht that Boat International lists as the one of the largest in the world, is on the market because its owner, WebMD and Netscape founder Jim Clark, simply has “too many boats.” Poor guy.

But as they say, one man's extra yacht is another man's treasure, so let's take a look inside.
