International media report that Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is building a large yacht in the Netherlands. And he has also ordered the large (75 meters) support vessel WINGMAN.
SuperYachtFan brings you the details. Photos by Dutch Yachting, Tom van Oosanen and Guy Fleury.
Bezos’ superyacht is actually hull Y721, currently under construction at Oceanco. The yacht will have a similar styling as Barry Diller’s sailing yacht EOS (which has a length of ‘just’ 93 m (305 ft)).
The yacht will have a large swimming pool on the aft deck. We estimate that the yacht can accommodate 18 guests, which will be catered for by a crew of around 40. The yacht will be delivered in 2022.
For the delivery of the yacht, a central part of the historic Koningshaven Bridge in Rotterdam will have to be dismantled.
Update December 2022: it seems her name will be KORU. SuperYachtFan is the first to bring you this news!
The koru (Māori for ‘”loop or coil”‘) is a spiral shape based on the appearance of a new unfurling silver fern frond. It is an integral symbol in Māori art, carving and tattooing, where it symbolizes new life, growth, strength, and peace. Its shape “conveys the idea of perpetual movement,” while the inner coil “suggests returning to the point of origin”.
Bezos made a post on Instagram referring to KORU and mentioning: personal growth, renewal, rebirth, and paying careful attention to each moment of your life.”

International media also report that Bezos ordered a large support vessel. This is actually the 75-meter (246ft) Hull YS7512, currently under construction at Damen Yachting.
She will be named WINGMAN.
The custom-built vessel will carry all toys and tenders of the main yacht. It has a helicopter hangar that can accommodate a large helicopter. The vessel can accommodate a total of 45 staff, crew, and guests.
With a volume of 1,900 tons, Jeff Bezos yacht will be the largest vessel in the Damen Yacht Support range.
Bezos is the founder of Amazon.com. He is one of the richest men in the world, with a net worth of $160 billion. He was reported to be the owner of the yacht Flying Fox, which was denied by an Amazon representative. He does own a Gulfstream G650ER private jet.
Oceanco is a luxury yacht builder based in Alblasserdam, Netherlands. The company was founded in 1987 and has become one of the most respected yacht builders in the world. It specializes in building custom-made luxury motor yachts that range in size from 80 to over 300 feet in length.
He is building a large 127m (417ft) sailing yacht at Oceanco, and a 75-meter (246ft) support vessel at Damen.
Oceanco builds his sailing yacht KORU, while Damen builds her yacht support vessel WINGMAN.
We estimate her cost price at $250 million, which is roughly $75,000 per ton. Her annual running costs are around $25 million. The price of a yacht can vary greatly depending on a number of factors, including the size, age, and level of luxury of the yacht, as well as the materials and technology used in its construction.
It is a symbol in Māori art, carving and tattooing, where it symbolizes new life, growth, strength, and peace.
