In July 2006, he formally launched his 289-foot sailing yacht named The Maltese Falcon, at the time, and still, the world's largest privately owned sailing yacht.[19][20][21] The yacht was listed for sale in 2006 on Yachtworld.com, the asking price being €99,000,000 with engine hours listed at 1,890 hours.[22] Perkins sold the yacht for £60million in July 2009.[18]
In 2011 Perkins acquired a Japanese fisheries training vessel, and had it converted into an "adventure" yacht named Dr. No which is used to carry a "Deep Flight" submarine, manufactured by Hawkes Ocean Technologies, of Richmond California.
