Jeff Bezos has finally taken delivery of Koru, 417' long and $500 million.


Look at the size of the people on the bow to get an idea of the scale of this thing.


He's also got Abeona, a 217' long support vessel.


According to the article running costs are $137,000 per day,

Funnily enough I took a a few photos in Palma on Saturday and was going to post them on here to find out what they were.

That yacht is enormous!





Took the shine off this one next to them...

O/T On a slightly more mundane level, I fell in love with this little thing when I was out there. Yours for a couple of day's running costs of the big stuff.

My family used to have a boat based in Palma, I used to love seeing the new mega yachts as they first arrived for the Med summer having fuelled up from Gib.
its impossible to grasp the size of a 90 mtr plus yacht until stood dock side next to it.

Here she is next to Black Pearl in Palma.

If I had the choice of either, I'd choose Black Pearl.

I don't dislike Koru, I think it's lovely, but prefer the aesthetics of Black Pearl.

I love both yachts.

With all the money in the world I admire the classic atheistic and relatively restrained design Bezos has chosen for the yacht. I suspect time will be far kinder to the design of Koru than B/P.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!

Can't stand them. Love the modern style boats (Fjord, VanDutch etc) but just looks like disproportionate. Too much freeboard for the length.

Nearly bought a Fjord some years back. Was after a Wally Tender but got some advice from a fellow ph’er to leave them well alone and look at the Fjord. To say there was a huge difference in quality is still to do a disservice!

Wherever you go, whatever is parked up in places, you know you'll always see/find a Westerley Centaur :lol:
