This quirky auction had heads turning

The Block billionaire Adrian Portelli has showed off his eye-watering custom-made Lamborghini yacht on social media, after picking up the luxury vessel in Italy.

The Melbourne business magnet, known as ‘Lambo Guy’, shared photos of the Lamborghini Tecnomar 63 yacht on Instagram on Monday, revealing he’s been enjoying trips on-board the lavish vessel with his family and friends in Europe.

“Almost two years in the making, the Lamborghini yacht is complete,” he captioned the post.

“I had the pleasure of taking delivery of the boat in Italy and then spending the week on the French Riviera testing it out with friends and family. A big thank you to everyone involved.”

Mr Portelli said the yacht, which is inspired by the performance of Lamborghini supersport cars, will make its way to the Gold Coast where it will call home.

In photos shared with his 340,000 Instagram followers, the LMCT+ founder can be seen standing in front of the yacht while holding his baby son, Mercy.

In one photo, he crouches down next to the vessel, revealing his son’s name written on the side.

Another shows him posing with a matching seabob, the same colour as the yacht.

They yacht appears to be just as impressive on the inside as it does on the outside, decked out with a futuristic style bathroom and luxuriously large bedroom with carpeted walls.

Many online expressed their shock and awe over the striking design, with some congratulating Mr Portelli on the lavish purchase.

“Holy sh*t! That’s amazing,” one person wrote.

“Absolutely insane!! You’re such an inspiration,” said another.

“That’s so cool,” another wrote.

“Looks amazing … big congrats,” another comment read.

“The detail is insane, sink shaped like the start button haha” another read.

Mr Portelli earlier revealed he purchased the Lamborghini yacht in an Instagram post in January last year.

“I BOUGHT A LAMBORGHINI …. YACHT! Blessed to be offered just 1 of 63 of these yachts being made worldwide and it’s pushing just a cool 4000hp from twin V-12s,” he wrote at the time.

The billionaire has been making a string of luxury purchases, having recently picked up his new SLR McLaren 722S in London and checked on a Koenigsegg Jesko being built.

He also recently purchased a new Lamborghini Huracan STO car.

“London touchdown! Finally did the deal on a SLR McLaren 722S ready to bring back home after the Euro trip,” he wrote on Instagram last month.

Mr Portelli has been travelling around on his private jet, Air AP, acquired from the late Melbourne advertising mogul Harold Mitchell.

The 34-year-old has become known for purchasing houses on the reality show The Block.

Growing up, the university dropout worked for his dad’s trucking business before moving to Los Angeles and striking it rich in technology start-ups.

He founded his online raffle business LMCT+, where subscribers can enter major draws.
