Jeff Bezos’ 417-Foot Yacht Drops Anchor in South Florida amid Move to Miami

The Amazon founder announced his move earlier this month

Jeff Bezos has brought his 417-foot-long yacht to Florida!

The Amazon founder's $500-million dollar vessel named Koru dropped anchor in Port Everglades, reports WPLG . Its massive size made it have to be parked next to an oil tanker and alongside other large cargo carriers, per Gizmodo .

Koru is the largest sailing yacht in the world and features a trio of masts and several decks, according to Boat International .

It was first spotted at sea earlier this year . Its arrival on the southeastern coast comes nearly a month after the entrepreneur, 59, announced that he was relocating to Miami from Seattle. Bezos announced his move in an Instagram post published on Nov. 2.

"I've lived in Seattle longer than I've lived anywhere else and have so many amazing memories here. As exciting as the move is, it's an emotional decision for me. Seattle, you will always have a piece of my heart," he shared in the caption.

The post included a clip of Bezos giving a tour of Amazon's first office, which was filmed by his father. He wrote in the post that his parents, along with his fiancée Lauren Sánchez , inspired his move.

"My parents [ Miguel and Jacklyn ] have always been my biggest supporters," Bezos wrote. "They recently moved back to Miami, the place we lived when I was younger (Miami Palmetto High class of '82 — GO Panthers!) I want to be close to my parents, and Lauren and I love Miami." 

Bezos and Sánchez, 53, took their relationship public  in January 2019. PEOPLE confirmed that the two are engaged in May. The news came after the two were seen traveling on the yacht during a romantic European getaway .

Apart from having a  wooden sculpture resembling Sánchez , the boat became the couple's preferred method of transportation during their summer travels, including stops in Saint-Tropez and multiple parts of Italy . The yacht was also the location of the couple's engagement party in August.

Jeff Bezos’ New Yacht Is Finally Ready to Set Sail

Amazon’s founder has been spotted on Koru, a massive schooner with a design that evokes the golden age of sailing in the early 20th century.

By Kevin Koenig

Just in time for the high season of yachting in the Mediterranean, when multimillion-dollar megayachts descend on ports like Monte Carlo and St. Tropez, Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon, has been photographed with his partner Lauren Sánchez on his new boat, Koru, off the coast of Spain.

Mr. Bezos’ vessel is a sailing yacht, a departure from the diesel-powered, floating palaces popular with other billionaires. But it is still massive. At 417 feet, Koru is the world’s largest sailing yacht, according to Boat International , and it cost an estimated $500 million to build, Bloomberg reported . (Parsifal III, the boat featured on Bravo’s reality series “Below Deck Sailing Yacht,” is 177 feet long — less than half the length of Koru — and cost $18 million , according to the website SuperYachtFan.)

A spokesperson for Mr. Bezos did not comment for this article; neither did Oceanco, Koru’s builder. Here is what to know about the boat.

For traditionalists, Koru is refreshing. At a time when yacht design skews outrageous — see the lizardlike, 262-foot Artefact or the otherworldly 463-foot Yas — Koru stands out as a schooner, a sailing vessel with two or more masts. Photos reveal a large sailboat with three masts, an on-deck pool and a voluptuous mermaid on the bow, that bears a resemblance to Ms. Sánchez. But otherwise, the sleek, classic lines suggest the patrician age of yachting in the early 20th century, said Robert B. MacKay, author of “The Golden Age of Newport Yachting: Between the Wars.”

“With the clipper bow and the dark hull and the masts,” Mr. MacKay said, referring to Koru’s concave, pointy forward section, “it reminds me of a boat built in 1930 for J.P. Morgan Jr., Corsair IV. It is almost like a reincarnation. It’s certainly at odds with the stuff the oligarchs are building — those look like bloated Clorox bottles.”

Compared with the world’s very largest motor yachts — built for sheer size and the accompanying bragging rights — Koru could almost be considered quaint. Azzam, one of the world’s largest motor yachts, is nearly 200 feet longer.

The Experience

Koru will be propelled primarily by the wind. “Sailboats are usually greener than most powerboats,” said Don Anderson, a former captain of M5 , the world’s largest single-masted sailboat, at 256 feet. “I’d like to think that Koru will be one of the most ecological yachts out there, with its sails and also with the technology that will be aboard.”

“When you’re on a sailboat, you’re more in touch with the wind and the waves than on a powerboat,” he continued. “You’re more susceptible to the elements, too. But you can leave California, and once you get past the Catalinas you can basically surf downwind all the way to Hawaii. All you need to do is run with the waves.”

Mr. Bezos has been a guest on similar boats, according to Bloomberg: In 2019, he was spotted on Eos , a 305-foot sailing yacht owned by Barry Diller and Diane von Furstenberg.

Bill Tripp, a Connecticut-based naval architect, said the appeal of this type of boat is clear: “When you are on a powerboat, you ask, ‘Are we there yet?’ and on a sailboat, you’re enjoying the ride and the ocean so much that you don’t ask that question.”

Koru will be trailed by Abeona, a 246-foot support vessel. Superyachts often have support vessels following along behind them. These “shadows,” as they are colloquially known, are for the “toys” — the ATVs, supercars, seaplanes, motorcycles, smaller boats, scuba gear, personal submarines and even helicopters that pleasure boaters might bring on a trip. According to its builder, this model of boat can carry these gadgets along with dozens of crew members. (Ms. Sanchez flies helicopters, and the couple was recently photographed taking a helicopter to board Abeona and then Koru.)

Abeona, a motor yacht, will have enough range to follow Koru from the Mediterranean to the Caribbean — a common course for yachts — on a single tank of gas.

The Kerfuffle

Koru set off a controversy last year — before it was even completed — in a face-off with the Dutch city of Rotterdam. The boat was built at Oceanco’s facility in Alblasserdam, the Netherlands, and needed to pass the historic Koningshaven Bridge, known as “De Hef,” in Rotterdam, to undergo testing in the North Sea.

When the city announced it would dismantle the bridge to allow the boat and its mainmast — an estimated 230 feet tall — to pass through unscathed, locals were angry. They planned a protest to throw eggs at the yacht as it cruised by. In the end, the bridge was not taken apart, and the yacht was towed to a different location to have its masts attached.

Koru is Maori for “coil” or “loop” and refers to the unfurling of a fern frond. The koru design is common in traditional Maori art, where it symbolizes new life, growth and peace. Mr. Bezos included a photo of a koru frond in an Instagram post on Jan. 1, 2022.

Brad Stone, who was the first to report on Koru, in his 2021 book “Amazon Unbound: Jeff Bezos and the Invention of a Global Empire,” said the name was “consistent with where we see him today.”

“He is no longer this single-minded tech guy,” Mr. Stone said. “He’s in media and Hollywood and has a new relationship.”

Amazon Founder Jeff Bezos’ 410FT Oceanco ‘Koru’ Sailing Yacht Docks In South Florida

Oceanco Yacht

Synonymous with entrepreneurial success, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has channeled his passion for ocean exploration through an impressive fleet of luxury marine vessels, including superyachts and megayachts. These magnificent marine builds represent Bezos’ deep-seated fascination with the mysteries of the ocean. Equipped with state-of-the-art technology, his yachts serve as a gateway to maritime adventures, allowing him to traverse the globe’s waters in remarkable comfort and style. Jeff Bezos is making headlines in the luxury yacht world as his vessel, Koru by Oceanco, finished its long-awaited journey around the world and made its appearance in Fort Lauderdale at a South Florida seaport.

Measuring an astonishing 410 feet in length, the modern sailing yacht stands out as the largest in the world. Its sheer size is so enormous that the original plans to dock Koru at the Port of Everglades were redirected to Fort Lauderdale where it would stay parked next to gigantic oil tankers. The exterior showcases an exterior design in collaboration between Oceanco and Dykstra Naval Architects, perfectly blending mondern and traditional yacht building.

Inside, the interior highlights a contemporary style with natural wood tones complemented by a palette of warm neutrals, courtesy of Mlinaric, Henry and Zervudachi Interior Design and Decoration. The three-masted sailing yacht offers ample deck space to provide a variety of breathtaking views, three jacuzzis, and a swimming pool. Now that Oceanco’s Koru sailing yacht is in South Florida with Jeff Bezos, we expect to see its marine presence all over social media.

An inside look at jeff bezos’ $500 million superyacht and what it costs to keep it afloat.

Cliché but true, the second-richest man on the planet, according to Forbes , owns the tallest sailing yacht in the world . In fact, the 417-foot Koru is so big, it has its own 250-foot support vessel .

Priced at $500 million, the Koru hit the sea for the first time in 2023 and has since ferried Jeff Bezos and company around the globe. Complete with three massive 229-foot masts, it can reach a top speed under sail of 20 knots, according to the New York Post — which is approximately 23 miles per hour.

Made for a group, up to 18 guests can set sail on the yacht, allowing Bezos to bring family and friends on vacation with him. Here’s a look at the Koru’s extravagant features and how much it costs to operate his floating mansion.

Wealthy people know the best money secrets. Learn how to copy them .

Key Features

As expected Bezos’ yacht is dripping with luxury. With a net worth of $203.8 billion — as of May 4, 2024, according to Forbes — he can afford to outfit the Koru with nothing but the best and he did just that.

The superyacht has three outdoor decks, with two containing swimming pools, according to the New York Post. It also features a cinema, several lounges and multiple business areas, according to Luxuo .

Highly personalized, the yacht is complete with a figurehead modeled after Bezos’ fiancée Lauren Sanchez. Even its masts are luxurious, as the Amazon founder chose in-boom furlers, which keep the canvases at the bottom of the mast above the deck, creating a pristine and spacious rope-free deck.

Support Vessel

One of the most shocking features of the Koru is the fact that it requires its own support vessel. The $75 million Abeona features a helipad that Sanchez has been spotted using to park her personal helicopter, according to the New York Post.

Designed to carry extra gear, four jet skis, two fast launches and a dinghy were spotted on the Abeona during a 2023 trip to Mallorca, Spain, according to the New York Post. It’s also capable of lifting a small submarine, but Bezos isn’t believed to own one — at least not yet.

Additionally, the support ship has two extra staterooms, which can accommodate four guests. This could come in handy if Bezos wants to entertain a larger group than can fit on the Koru.

On-Board Crew

It probably isn’t a surprise that operating both the Koru and the Abeona is no small task. From staff to drive the boats and maintain them to caring for guests onboard, Bezos needs a small army at sea.

The Koru has a crew of up to 36 people, according to The New York Post. If you think that’s a lot, the Abeona requires up to 45 crew and support staff.

Annual Operating Costs

Purchasing the Koru and Abeona cost Bezos more than half a billion dollars, but his expenses didn’t end there. As you might imagine, the annual cost to maintain a superyacht and its own enormous supporting yacht is more than most people earn in a lifetime.

The Koru costs approximately $25 million in operating expenses per year, according to the Daily Mail . Much less, but still sky-high, Bezos spends around $5 to $10 million on annual maintenance costs for the Abeona, according to Super Yacht Fan ).

When their owners are on dry land, yachts have to find a parking space. However, even this doesn’t always come cheap for Bezos and the Koru.

In November 2023, the billionaire’s yacht arrived in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, but was too big to fit in the port with all the outer superyachts, according to the Daily Mail. Therefore, it had to be docked with cruise ships at Port Everglades, at a rate of $16,500 per week.

While one week of storage might be more than the average person can afford, picking up the tab for any number of weeks would clearly be no issue for Bezos. While his superyacht and the many expenses surrounding it are clearly astronomical, he’s still living well within his budget.

Jeff Bezos’ superyacht is in Florida. It’s so big it has to anchor at a seaport.

• Madeleine Marr Miami Herald (TNS)

South Florida, meet The Koru.

That’s the name of Jeff Bezos’ colossal yacht that just dropped anchor in Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale. The word means “new beginnings” in Maori, the language spoken by indigenous Polynesians of mainland New Zealand, where  the Amazon founder’s private jet was spotted  in 2020.

How ginormous is this triple-masted behemoth? Roughly 400 feet long and 250 feet tall, it’s the size of a cruise ship. That ginormous.

The  luxury schooner  is so big it can’t even hang with other leisure ships; she reportedly is parked near two oil tankers. It has two pools, a hot tub, multiple lounges, dining areas and bars, and perhaps the pièce de résistance, a wooden figurehead on the prow rumored to be modeled after Bezos’ fiancée,  Lauren Sanchez .

The 59-year-old billionaire shelled out about $500M for his snazzy new toy, which was built just for him in the Netherlands by Oceanco, the company that also constructed Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones’ superyacht,  the Bravo Eugenia .

Get used to seeing The Koru around, especially if you set sail on a vacation. Bezos, a Palmetto High alum,  lives back here  full time now, after spending three decades in Seattle, busy reinventing the way the world shops.

WEATHER ALERT

A rip current statement in effect for Coastal Broward and Coastal Miami Dade Regions

Jeff bezos’ yacht drops anchor at port everglades.

Veronica Crespo , Digital Journalist

PORT EVERGLADES, Fla. – The behemoth boat owned by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has dropped anchor in South Florida.

The half-billion-dollar vessel named Koru has arrived at Port Everglades.

The 417-foot boat is the world’s largest sailing yacht.

Bezos recently revealed he is relocating to Miami after nearly three decades in Seattle.

According to an Instagram post, Bezos, 59, said he wants to be close to his parents who recently moved back to Miami.

He also says the move makes sense because of Blue Origin’s operations in Cape Canaveral. NASA recently granted to rocket company a $3.4 billion contract to lead a team to develop a lunar lander named Blue Moon. It will be used to transport astronauts to the lunar surface as early as 2029.

Earlier this summer, Bezos purchased a home in Indian Creek Village in August . The exclusive area in Miami is known as “Billionaire Bunker” where he will be neighbors with celebrities including Tom Brady, Ivanka Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner.

Bezos paid $68 million for the three-bedroom, waterfront home, which sits on 2.8 acres (1.1 hectares), Fortune magazine and Bloomberg reported.

The Amazon founder stepped down as CEO in 2021 to devote more time to philanthropy and other projects .

Bezos graduated from Palmetto Senior High in 1982.

You Can See Jeff Bezos's Megayacht ‘Koru' From This $13.5 Million South Florida Mansion

In November, Jeff Bezos revealed that he was leaving Seattle and relocating to Miami . Earlier this month, the Amazon founder's super-sized sailing yacht Koru finally dropped anchor in Fort Lauderdale, and now, one newly listed estate will let you keep an eye on the $485 million vessel while he's away.

The waterfront mansion on FTL's Harbourview Drive has hit the market for just shy of $13.5 million ; the listing is held by colleagues Zachary Skubon and Lori Suarez of ONE Sotheby's International Realty. Measuring an impressive 6,500 square feet, the residence was recently completed and comprises a total of six bedrooms and eight bathrooms. Naturally, the palatial abode is all about its frontage on the Intracoastal Waterway, so if you've got big boat envy, there's plenty of place to park a vessel of your own too.

The home sits right across from Port Everglades, where Bezos, the world's third-richest person, is reported to be storing his 417-footer, and is just minutes from the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport and the iconic, newly renovated Pier Sixty-Six Resort.

Built by Costas RE, a high-end real estate developer based in South Florida, the turnkey property sports soaring ceilings, a smart-home system, porcelain tiles, and expansive walls of sliding glass. The opulent two-story spread is entered via a 10-foot pivot door, and, past the foyer, the fully equipped chef's kitchen is decked out with state-of-the-art Miele appliances and quartz counters.

Elsewhere, you'll find three wet bars, a dining area with a wine room, and a club room on the first floor. Additionally, the second level holds two primary suites that each sport spa-like baths, massive closets, and a lounge that overlooks the water. There's also a swanky glass-door elevator, custom lighting, and four private balconies.

Outside, a large resort-style pool and spa are the focal points of the home's extensive alfresco entertaining spaces. The grounds also include a covered patio with a top-of-the-line outdoor kitchen.

While Bezos's yacht might be parked nearby, the Blue Origin founder's new home is reported to be on Miami Beach's exclusive Indian Creek Island, where, according to  Bloomberg , he splashed out an eye-watering $68 million on a nearly three-acre estate where he'll presumably live with his fiancée, Lauren Sanchez. An unnamed source told the news site that Bezos is continuing his "Billionaire Bunker" shopping spree in hopes of finding another mansion to add to his ever-expanding real estate portfolio.

Jeff Bezos Yacht Koru, The Largest Sailing Yacht

Jeff Bezos Yacht Koru A Controversial Start and a Symbolic Name

Jeff Bezos, the billionaire behind Amazon, is set to become the owner of the world's largest sailing vessel, S/Y Koru. The yacht, which measures 417 feet long, is currently undergoing open-seas testing before being delivered to its owner. The vessel has had a controversial start to its life, with a petition to dismantle a historic bridge in Rotterdam causing anger among the Dutch people. However, the boat was eventually moved to a different shipyard, and now it is almost ready to sail. In this editorial, we will look at S/Y Koru's design, its controversial start, and what the future holds for this massive sailing yacht.

The Largest Sailing Vessel in the World

Once S/Y Koru is delivered to Jeff Bezos, it will become the largest sailing vessel in the world. The yacht's sheer size is impressive, but its sailing capabilities are just as noteworthy. S/Y Koru has a hybrid propulsion system, which allows it to sail using wind power or a diesel engine. Crafted from cutting-edge materials, the yacht's sails are built to endure various weather conditions while delivering peak performance.

S/Y Koru's massive size and advanced technology come with a hefty price tag. It's been reported that constructing the yacht amounted to roughly $500 million, positioning it as one of the priciest vessels in existence. However, for Jeff Bezos, this is a drop in the bucket. The billionaire has a net worth of over $100 billion, making him one of the richest people in the world.

Symbolism and Design

The Jeff Bezos' Yacht Koru, which is not just a massive sailing yacht, but also a symbol of perpetual movement and the cycle of life, has a name inspired by the Māori symbol of the same name. The koru symbolizes the spiral of an unfurling fern frond and embodies the concept of how life both changes and remains constant, according to the New Zealand government's definition. Representing perpetual motion, the Koru's circular form with its inward coil signifies a return to the starting point.

The yacht's design is just as impressive as its symbolism. S/Y Koru was built by Oceanco, a Dutch yacht builder known for its high-end luxury vessels. The yacht has a sleek, modern design, with clean lines and a metallic grey finish. It features three masts and can accommodate up to 36 guests and 56 crew members. The yacht's interior is just as impressive, with a spa, gym, and even a climbing wall.

The Koru is not just a yacht; it's a statement. Its sheer size, advanced technology, and sleek design make it a testament to human innovation and engineering. It's the largest sailing vessel in the world, and it's a marvel to behold.

A Controversial Start

S/Y Koru's development process was not without controversy. In 2017, Oceanco petitioned the Rotterdam government to dismantle the Koningshavenbrug bridge so that the yacht could be moved to open water. The bridge, known locally as De Hef, is a symbol of local resistance against the invading forces during World War II. It was heavily damaged by Nazi shelling but managed to survive, becoming a testament to the city's resilience.

The Rotterdam city council refused the petition, causing anger among the Dutch people. Nearly 3,000 people signed up for a protest that involved throwing eggs at the yacht as it passed through town. However, the boat was eventually moved to a different shipyard without its masts early in the morning, avoiding any further controversy.

Top reasons why the Koru is a unique and impressive vessel:

Symbolic Design: The circular shape of the Koru represents perpetual motion, with its inward coil symbolizing a return to the starting point.

Cutting-Edge Materials: The yacht's sails are made from high-tech materials, designed to endure various weather conditions while delivering peak performance.

Advanced Technology: The Koru has a hybrid propulsion system, which allows it to sail using wind power or a diesel engine.

Impressive Size: Once delivered to Jeff Bezos, the Koru will become the largest sailing vessel in the world.

Luxurious Interior: The yacht can accommodate up to 36 guests and 56 crew members, with a spa, gym, and even a climbing wall.

Controversial Start: The yacht's development process was not without controversy, with a petition to dismantle a historic bridge in Rotterdam causing anger among the Dutch people.

Statement Piece: The Koru is not just a yacht; it's a statement. Its sheer size, advanced technology, and sleek design make it a testament to human innovation and engineering.

Jeff Bezos Yacht Koru is an impressive vessel, both in its size and design. The yacht's symbolism and modern features make it a unique addition to the luxury sailing world. While it may have had a controversial start, S/Y Koru is now ready to sail the open seas and embark on new adventures. Only time will tell what Jeff Bezos has planned for this magnificent yacht, but one thing is for sure - it will undoubtedly turn heads and be the envy of seafarers worldwide. S/Y Koru's advanced technology, sleek design, and exceptional performance make it a stunning feat of engineering and a true masterpiece on the water.

Koru , the record-breaking 127m sailing yacht built for Amazon founder Jeff Bezos , 59, has arrived in the United States for the first time.

Photos circulating online show the $500m titan moored in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. But the yacht is so large that it is being kept alongside cruise ships and oil tankers at a busy seaport, rather than with other superyachts, as Florida’s marinas typically cannot accommodate a yacht of this size.

One nearby marina told the Daily Mail it “might be doable” but warned that Koru ‘s 17m beam and 4.2m draft would make it a huge challenge.

The extravagant three-masted Oceanco schooner was snapped docked at Port Everglades, next to the Liberty of the Seas cruise ship. Meanwhile, Abeona — the ship’s dedicated support vessel — is docked at Dania Beach 6km away. The 75-metre Abeona , built by Damen Yachting, comes complete with a helipad and an array of water toys.

It’s understood that Koru — named after the Maori word for ‘new beginnings ‘ — arrived in Florida late last Wednesday evening after departing from Gibraltar two weeks prior.

Tycoon Bezos and his fiancee Lauren Sanchez have been cruising the Med in recent months, including stops in Sardinia, the Italian town of Portofino, and several stops around Croatia.

Media outlets noted that Koru ‘s AIS tracker had been switched off for an extended period throughout the summer, potentially a bid by Bezos to avoid attention.

However, attempts at hiding the goliath — which has estimated running costs of $25m per year — do not seem to have worked.

Amazon boss Bezos — the third richest person in the world with a $170bn fortune – is not currently on board but is expected to use the vessel over the holidays. Bezos has recently confirmed a move from Seattle to the Miami area in Florida, near where his parents live and where his space firm Blue Origin is based.

The design for 3,300GT  Koru  is based on  Black Pearl , built in 2018 and the largest DynaRig sailing yacht in the world.

The steel and aluminium superyacht Koru underwent sea trials in the North Sea in February this year. A video captured by  Dutch Yachting  shows the vessel being towed out of Rotterdam before cruising on calm waters in the misty morning air.

The yacht was eventually delivered in April, when it made its maiden voyage from the Netherlands to Gibraltar. 

Oceanco  had remained tight-lipped about  Koru  while it was under construction, but never denied that Bezos was the vessel’s owner, sending superyacht spotters into a frenzy when the  vessel emerged from the sheds in 2022  under the cover of darkness.

One response to “Jeff Bezos’ 127m superyacht Koru arrives in the US”

$500M, thats about $750M to us tax payers!

Not sure how he gets away with operating a vessel that size with no AIS active.

Jeff Bezos' Superyacht Is So Massive It Had To Be Docked Next To Oil Tankers In Florida

The billionaire's sailing yacht, the koru, completed its journey from the mediterranean to the u.s. where it towers over other superyachts..

Jeff Bezos is insanely rich. So much so that his superyacht is bigger than other rich people’s superyachts, which is pretty wild if you think about it. Bezos’ recently completed ship, the Koru, is currently docked down in Florida where its massive size made it a bit difficult to dock.

Suggested Reading

Luxury Launches reported that the Koru, which is currently the biggest sailing ship in the world, recently completed its months long journey from the Mediterranean all the way to Port Everglades in South Florida. Any other billionaire’s boat wouldn’t have any trouble docking at the port, which can accommodate yachts in size up to 400 feet. The 416-foot Koru dwarfs that in nearly every dimension.

The half-a-billion-dollar boat is nearly twice the length of an Airbus A380 with an internal volume of 3,300 GT. Moreover, its triple masts measuring 230 feet make the vessel nearly half the size of the Great Pyramid of Giza.

Related Content

The Koru is so big that it had to be docked near two 600-plus-foot oil tankers. Equally huge are the docking fees and the cost to keep this thing running. Using another superyacht as an example, Luxury Launches says that current docking rates at Port Everglades can run $22,000 for just 10 days. That’s in addition to the daily upkeep costs  of $137,000 for the Koru, which should be chump change for Bezos.

Don’t forget about the Koru’s $75 million support yacht , Abeona, that follows the Koru just so Bezos’ fiancé Lauren Sanchez can land her helicopter on it. Abeona won’t be joining the Koru in Florida, however. The smaller yacht is headed to the Bahamas where it’s expected the Koru will meet up with it soon.

Suffice it to say, Rotterdam locals were none too pleased about the idea. Thousands of residents even went so far as committing to egg the billionaire’s schooner in protest. Following the public outcry, Oceanco withdrew its request to dismantle the bridge. Lo and behold, Y271 has still managed to escape.

Local yachting enthusiast Hanco Bol witnessed the yacht’s stealthy departure at 3 am on August 2 and subsequently posted a video of the three-hour journey on YouTube. Bol speculated that Oceanco opted for an alternate route (we’re guessing one with fewer bridges) to keep the launch and transport under wraps. The yacht reportedly hit an average speed of 8 knots and arrived at the Port of Rotterdam at 6 am. By Bol’s account, it was a quiet and quick getaway.

“We never saw a transport going that fast,” the YouTube post reads.

Oceanco has been tightlipped about the gigayacht and did not immediately respond to Robb Report ‘s request for a comment. Upon completion, Y271 will not only be Holland’s largest superyacht to date, but it will also be the world’s biggest sailing yacht. It just might be the most controversial, too.

Jeff Bezos' fanciest toys, from a superyacht to the newest Gulfstream jet

• Amazon founder Jeff Bezos owns expensive properties, planes, and a megayacht.
• His most recent acquisitions include mansions on an island in Florida and the latest Gulfstream jet.
• Here's a rundown of Bezos' most expensive toys.

Jeff Bezos has become one of the world's richest people , so it's no surprise that he's purchased lots of expensive toys, from a megayacht to houses on a private island in Florida.

Bezos has a net worth of $192.3 billion and is currently the second-richest person in the world, according to Forbes .

Bezos has invested some of the money that he's made since founding Amazon in 1994 into other businesses. He founded rocket and aerospace company Blue Origin in 2000, for instance. And in 2013, he acquired The Washington Post. This year, he also sold some of his Amazon shares to fund Day 1 Academies , a chain of nonprofit preschools that he founded.

But Bezos has also spent hundreds of millions on planes, a yacht, houses, and other property. A representative for Bezos didn't respond to a request for comment from Business Insider.

Here's a look at the Bezos-owned planes, yachts, and houses that we know about:

One of Bezos' newest acquisitions seems to be a Gulfstream G700.

Bezos's newest private jet appears to be a Gulfstream G700, according to data from JetSpy. The Amazon founder likely took possession of the plane in July, flight data shows.

The G700 just got approval to fly from the FAA in March and is worth around $80 million, BI previously reported.

The Gulfstream would be Bezos' fourth jet.

The G700 is the latest private jet purchased by Bezo, who has collected multiple private planes over the years.

He previously purchased two Gulfstream G650ERs as well as a Pilatus PC-24, BI reported. With the addition of the G700, Bezo's aircraft are now collectively worth more than $200 million.

Through the same LLC that his two G650ERs are registered to, Bezos has also owned a hangar in Seattle since 2015.

Bezos also has a megayacht called Koru.

Koru , a 127-meter yacht, made her debut in 2023 with a trek around the Mediterranean. The vessel cost about $500 million and includes the Abeona, a support vessel, BI previously reported.

The yacht has hosted celebrities from Bill Gates to Leonardo DiCaprio . Bezos and fianc ée Lauren Sánchez also had their engagement party aboard Koru last year.

Bezos recently bought three mansions on an exclusive island off of Miami.

Over the past year, Bezos has acquired three homes in Indian Creek Village , an island off of Miami known for its lux residences. Other notable property owners there include Tom Brady and Carl Icahn.

Bezos has spent $237 million between the three properties.

He also owns property in the nation's capital.

In 2016, two years before Amazon announced that it was building its HQ2 in Arlington, Virginia, then-Amazon CEO Bezos paid $23 million for a compound across the river in Washington, D.C.

Bezos then spent another $12 million renovating the two-structure property, which previously hosted a textile museum. The property features a ballroom, 11 bedrooms, and 25 bathrooms, BI reported in 2018.

The mansions are just a few properties amongst Bezos' extensive real estate holdings.

The Amazon co-founder owns properties in his company's hometown, including a lakeside compound with a private shoreline, boathouse, and a waterslide.

But his real estate holdings extend far beyond the Pacific Northwest.

In West Texas, Bezos acquired the Figure 2 Ranch, a 30,000-acre property, in 2004, Architectural Digest reported in May. The ranch plays host to Blue Origin.

Bezos' other holdings include homes in Beverly Hills and luxury apartments in Manhattan, according to Architectural Digest.

Lauren Sanchez has gushed over her “quiet” life at home with her fiancé, Jeff Bezos .

The 54-year-old former news anchor opened up about her downtime with the billionaire, 60, during an interview with People , published on August 29. “My favorite time is when the house is calm and quiet and Jeff and I are deciding what show we’re going to binge that night,” she said.

However, she also confessed that she and her husband sometimes disagree when choosing what to watch.

“It takes a little bit of time to decide,” she hilariously admitted. “You can imagine our tastes are a little different. But I love our TV time, we just have the best time.”

She then shared some of her and Bezos’s – who split their time between his home in Los Angeles and Miami – favorite things that they’ve recently watched.

“We recently saw Baby Reindeer , which of course everyone saw. Fallout was also so good. We also just finished Presumed Innocent , which was incredible," Sanchez added. “Oh, and we loved Severance.”

Sanchez acknowledged that her daily routine will be changing soon, as she embarks on a tour for her new book, The Fly Who Flew to Space, which comes out on September 10.

“I’m so thrilled my kids get to see me do this because they encouraged me to write this for years and I finally made it happen,” she said, as the mother of three children – Nikko Gonzalez, 23, Evan, 18, and Ella, 16 – who shares with her ex-husband, Patrick Whitesell.

Sanchez has previously gushed over the downtime she has with her fiancé, amid their busy schedules. In September 2023, she took to Instagram to share a snap of her and the Amazon founder on a walk , as she had her hand in his back pocket, and he had his arm over her shoulder.

“Nothing better than when I get to see him for lunch between his meetings,” she wrote in the caption.

She has also praised her partner’s hard work throughout his career. During an interview with Vogue , published in November, she opened up about her dynamic with Bezos, who is one of the richest men in the world. According to Forbes , Bezos has a net worth of $193.9bn.

“I think there are a lot of opportunities that come with that, and I take those opportunities very seriously,” she explained. “We always look at each other and go: ‘We’re the team.’ So everything’s shared.”

She also revealed that, although she’d got on Bezos’ yacht, Koru , last year, they weren’t rushing into planning their nuptials. “We’re still thinking about the wedding,” she said at the time. “What it’s going to be. Is it going to be big? Is it going to be overseas? We don’t know yet.”

However, Sanchez didn’t hesitate to confirm that, once she gets married, she’ll be taking her husband’s last name. “Uh, yes, 100 per cent,” she said. “I am looking forward to being Mrs Bezos.”

In August 2023, they first hosted an engagement party on Koru with some famous guests, including Bill Gates and his girlfriend, Paula Hurd. At the time, People also reported that the boat party was taking place along the Amalfi Coast in Italy.

Jeff Bezos' teure Hobbys: Von Super-Yacht bis neuestem Privat-Jet

Jeff bezos‘ teure hobbys: von der super-yacht bis zum neuesten privat-jet.

Link kopiert!

Amazon-Gründer Jeff Bezos besitzt teure Immobilien, Flugzeuge und eine Megayacht.

Zu seinen jüngsten Erwerbungen gehören Villen auf einer Insel in Florida und der neueste Gulfstream-Jet.

Hier ist eine Übersicht über die teuersten Spielzeuge von Bezos.

Jeff Bezos ist einer der reichsten Menschen der Welt geworden, daher ist es keine Überraschung, dass er viele teure Spielzeuge gekauft hat – von einer Megayacht bis hin zu Häusern auf einer Privatinsel in Florida.

Bezos hat ein Vermögen von 192,3 Milliarden US-Dollar (rund 173 Milliarden Euro) und ist derzeit die zweitreichste Person der Welt, laut „ Forbes „.

Bezos investiert in andere Geschäftsbereiche

Bezos hat einen Teil des Geldes, das er seit der Gründung von Amazon im Jahr 1994 verdient hat, in andere Geschäftsbereiche investiert. So gründete er zum Beispiel im Jahr 2000 das Raketen- und Raumfahrtunternehmen Blue Origin. Und im Jahr 2013 erwarb er die Washington Post.

In diesem Jahr verkaufte er auch einige seiner Amazon-Aktien, um Day 1 Academies zu finanzieren, eine Kette von gemeinnützigen Vorschulen, die er gegründet hat.

Bezos gibt Hunderte Millionen für Flugzeuge, Yachten und Immobilien aus

Aber Bezos hat auch Hunderte von Millionen für Flugzeuge, eine Yacht, Häuser und andere Immobilien ausgegeben. Ein Vertreter von Bezos hat eine Anfrage um Stellungnahme von Business Insider nicht beantwortet.

Hier ist ein Blick auf die von Bezos besessenen Flugzeuge, Yachten und Häuser, von denen wir wissen:

Eine der neuesten Anschaffungen von Bezos scheint eine Gulfstream G700 zu sein

Lauren sánchez dishes on low-key home life with fiancé jeff bezos: ‘my favorite time’.

Lauren Sánchez’s life behind closed doors seems to be very much low-key while she’s often galavanting on luxury yachts with her soon-to-be hubby Jeff Bezos.

And when the duo has time to themselves at home, Sánchez revealed that they’re often catching up on some shows.

“My favorite time is when the house is calm and quiet and Jeff and I are deciding what show we’re going to binge that night,” the Emmy-winning former news anchor, 54, told People .

The pair announced last year that they were leaving Seattle, where Bezos built his empire,  and moving to Miami  to be nearer to his loved ones.

With all the moving around, Sánchez admits that the pair are just as indecisive on what to watch.

“It takes a little bit of time to decide” she told the outlet. “You can imagine our tastes are a little different. But I love our TV time, we just have the best time.”

“We recently saw Baby Reindeer, which of course everyone saw. Fallout was also so good. We also just finished Presumed Innocent, which was incredible,” she continued. “Oh, and we loved Severance.”

It comes as Sánchez recently returned to the US following a romantic trip to Italy with her soon-to-be hubby.

The couple — who  got engaged  last year — were photographed sharing a sweet kiss in front of the Trevi Fountain in Rome before tossing coins into the fountain.

Later on, the lovebirds even enjoyed a sit-down meeting with none other than Pope Francis.

Sánchez raved about the honor, saying she was “deeply touched” over the Pope’s “wisdom, warmth, and humor.”

Three days prior, they spent time on Bezos’ $485 million superyacht in Sardinia with a slew of A-listers, including Orlando Bloom, Katy Perry, Leonardo DiCaprio and his girlfriend Vittoria Ceretti.

The star-studded clan came to shore on one of the Amazon founder’s smaller boats for lunch at a high-end beach resort before heading back to the massive vessel — Koru.

Bezos and Sánchez have spent most of their summer traveling around Europe aboard Koru.

They  kicked off their overseas adventures in Greece with Kim Kardashian  before traveling through the Mediterranean Sea and up to Italy.

The billionaire also owns a “smaller” $75-million yacht named Abeona.
