Mark Zuckerberg Buys $300 Million Superyacht 'Launchpad'

The Meta CEO's new luxury vessel, acquired ahead of his 40th birthday, marks his entry into the exclusive billionaire superyacht club.

Mark Zuckerberg acquires a $300 million, 287-foot superyacht named 'Launchpad', reportedly as an early 40th birthday gift to himself.
The yacht, originally commissioned by a Russian oligarch, was acquired by Zuckerberg following sanctions that prevented its delivery.
'Launchpad' can comfortably accommodate 24 guests and requires a crew of 48, with an annual upkeep cost of $30 million.
The superyacht, constructed by Feadship and designed by Espen Øino International, boasts a sleek navy blue exterior and luxurious interiors.
Zuckerberg's purchase places him among the elite group of billionaires with superyachts, alongside Jeff Bezos and Larry Ellison.
