The Rising Sun is 453 feet long and reportedly cost more than $200 million to build. It has an extensive wine cellar, bathrooms with Jacuzzis, a private cinema and a basketball court that doubles as a helicopter landing pad, according to the yacht’s Wikipedia page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rising_Sun_%28yacht%29).

The Rising Sun can accommodate up to 16 guests and 45 crew members, according to Superyachts.com (http://www.superyachts.com/).

The yacht was built for Larry Ellison, the CEO and co-founder of Oracle, an enterprise software company, according to Forbes.com (http://www.forbes.com/home_usa/).

Geffen, who bought the yacht from Ellison several years ago, is a record executive and film producer who started DreamWorks Studios with Steven Spielberg and Jeffrey Katzenberg.
