Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and his girlfriend Lauren Sanchez were seen unwinding on the new superyacht, which is thought to be valued at close to $500 мιllιon.
On May 15, a picture of the 59-year-old billionaire was taken on board the 417-foot-long ship as it sailed along the Spanish coast.
The couple’s first trip together takes place roughly five years after the ship’s first commissioning in 2018 for $500 мιllιon. The yacht has three decks and a pool and is called the Koru after the Maori term for “new beginnings.”
In pictures obtained by the Daily Mail, Bezos could be seen on the megayacht’s sundeck shirtless, while Sanchez wore a pink bikini and a white cover-up.
Bezos reportedly flew to Mallorca on a private plane and then used the helipad on his yacht to arrive at it by helicopter.
Even the figurehead of the 250-foot-tall ship startlingly resembled Bezo’s 53-year-old fiancée. The polished wooden sculpture, which is located at the prow of the yacht, features a woman with long hair and a flowing garment, dressed in the manner of a Roman goddess.
According to Boat International, Koru, formerly known as Y721, is the tallest sailing yacht in the world, having three masts that are over 230 feet in height. It allegedly cost Bezos $485 мιllιon.
The appearance of the yacht features a traditional black hull and white superstructure. The Amazon entrepreneur reportedly spent $75 мιllιon on a backup yacht to serve as a helipad even though the new ship does not have one.
According to Page Six, the yacht requires $25 мιllιon in annual maintenance, but Bezos has more than enough money to pay for it thanks to his estimated $141 billion net worth.
