Sadly Oogle, the term yacht has been stretched more and more over recent years as they have become larger. Even the classification that the craft have to comply with (including helicopter operations) makes it more of a ship than yacht. One such is 270' overall and for sale at Euro 130 million. The trouble is I'm not sure what the alternative name for a yacht under these circumstances should be!
