Doesn’t it depend on the disaster? If there are huge tidal surges and tidal waves, being on a super yacht may not be prudent. After all, I’ve been in the North Atlantic and seen what waves can do to Navy ships built far stronger. More so, a super yacht is only as secure as the tactical team onboard to defend it. A simple air drone strike launched from well… anywhere… can end that party quickly. So, no, I wouldn’t waste my money on that idea.

One thing I do think about though is space exploration. Stephen Hawking encouraged development of another colony. If the planet does become uninhabitable, Mars may one day be an option and I would hope that those chosen would include a spectrum of talented individuals that can contribute to each other’s survival and not on their material wealth.
