Billionaire superyacht showdown: who’s who in st. barths for new year 2024.

Superyachts in Gustavia Harbor, St. Barths

The port of Gustavia in St. Barths is getting crowded this holiday season as the legendary superyacht showdown begins. The season started early, with the wealthiest men in the world and their celebrity friends (Jennifer Lopez, Heidi Klum) anchored outside of Gustavia and neighboring St. Maarten and Antigua. Many will stay through Christmas, taking glamorous day trips to nearby islands, and then party with the traditional fireworks show above St. Barths Fort Oscar on New Year's Eve.

Jonny Dodge, CEO and Founder of My Ocean , handling superyacht sales, charters and management, says, "More billionaires congregate on this tiny rock in the Caribbean than anywhere else in the world at once. Last year, we went to the UNICEF Gala with clients at a $300,000 table, followed by an after-party on the billionaire owner of superyacht VAVA II . There are more celebrities than you can count in St. Barths, and it's really like they picked up St Tropez and transported to the Caribbean."

New this year, Bagatelle Group opened their second St. Barts location, iTA , a disco-jungle themed restaurant and bar located in Gustavia overlooking the harbor, and the famed Le Ti cabaret club, open since 1995, was recently purchased and reopened under new ownership.

Superyachts in the area for the holidays will send their guests in via tender to numerous exclusive parties and host their own private celebrations on board. Among the high-profile New Year's Eve events this year, Gala One from AAB Productions threw one of the most exclusive parties on the island prior to New Years Eve at the famed Eden Rock. With performances by Bebe Rexha and Saweetie, as well as a thrilling live auction, the evening benefitted several charities dedicated to protecting children, biodiversity and the waters and lands of the Caribbean.

Here is a selection of some of the largest yachts that were in and around St. Barths for the holidays. Detailed positions and owner information were sourced by my friends at Marine Traffic and Superyachtfan .

The largest yachts owned by tech billionaires, from Mark Zuckerberg to Jeff Bezos

• Megayachts have become a status symbol for the richest of the rich.
• In recent years, Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg have splurged on enormous boats.
• These are the biggest yachts owned by tech billionaires.

The average Joe celebrating a personal renaissance after, say, the end of a long-term relationship or when approaching a fresh decade might commemorate it with an ankle tattoo or a sports car. But if you're a billionaire, you may instead spend hundreds of millions on a yacht .

A few years after he and his wife divorced, Jeff Bezos shelled out on a megayacht. Last year, Bezos debuted the 127-meter vessel "Koru," a Māori symbol that signifies a fresh start — perhaps referring to that with his fiancée Lauren Sanchez.

Earlier this year, just before his 40th birthday, Mark Zuckerberg became the rumored owner of a yacht originally built for a Russian oligarch.

Superyachts have increasingly become ultrawealthy status symbols , providing highly secluded leisure and networking sites. They are — even more so than real estate — the single most expensive asset you can own.

"It's a bit of a celebration of your success in life, of wealth," Giovanna Vitelli, the chair of the Azimut Benetti Group, the world's biggest producer of superyachts, told Business Insider.

While many tech billionaires have bought yachts, the richest of the rich, like Bezos, Zuckerberg, and Oracle cofounder Larry Ellison, have gone bigger. Their boats are virtual palaces at sea, decked with amenities like gyms, spas, pools, nightclubs, and movie theaters.

A look at these megayachts — broadly defined as over 70 meters long, mostly custom-built, and often costing nine figures — offers a glimpse into how the .00001% lives. It's something few others will ever get to experience. Even chartering a yacht of this size for a week typically costs upwards of $1 million.

One major thing that hundreds of millions of dollars can buy is privacy. There are likely yachts that have not been publicly recorded or registered — for example, Evan Spiegel is rumored to own the 94-meter megayacht Bliss. In an industry ruled by discretion , deciphering who owns what is typically an exercise in stringing together many clues.

Here are the largest yachts owned by tech billionaires, listed in order of length.

Jeff Bezos: Koru and Abeona

Amazon founder Bezos' $500 million megayacht, the 127-meter Koru, made a splash last year as she crisscrossed the Mediterranean in her first summer at sea, with her 75-meter support vessel Abeona in tow.

The sailing yacht, which is hard to miss thanks to her massive size and unique design, was host to Bezos and his fiancée Lauren Sanchez's famous friends . The couple held an engagement party on board, which reportedly drew guests including Bill Gates, Ari Emanuel, and Leonardo DiCaprio. Just a week later, they were seen on the streets of Dubrovnik, Croatia, with Orlando Bloom, Katy Perry, and Usher.

Even before her completion, Koru made headlines. She drew the ire of some Dutch people, who vowed to hurl eggs after she was announced a historic bridge in Rotterdam might be taken apart to allow the Oceanco boat through. Luckily, the shipyard made alternative plans, and an egg crisis was averted.

Among yacht world insiders , Koru is widely praised for her craftsmanship.

"I heard back in 2018 or something that somebody had ordered a classic sailing yacht," one superyacht expert told BI. "You order 125 meters, that's not really going to be classic. But it is. I think it's pretty cool."

Mark Zuckerberg: Launchpad

Earlier this year, the yacht world was rife with rumors that Zuckerberg purchased Launchpad, a 118-meter superyacht originally designed for a sanctioned Russian businessman.

The ship made her maiden voyage in March, going from Gibraltar to St. Maarten and mooring in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

Little is known about her interior, but photos show a large swimming pool and helipad. Her price, too, has been kept under wraps but is said to be nine figures.

Eric Schmidt: Whisper

Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt made waves last year when he agreed to buy the Alfa Nero , the yacht of a sanctioned Russian oligarch, for $67 million in an auction conducted by Antigua and Barbuda. But he backed out of the deal following legal issues over her true owner. He quietly purchased Kismet instead. The 95-meter-long Lürssen-built boat was formerly owned by the Jacksonville Jaguar's billionaire owner Shahid Khan . Schmidt renamed her Whisper.

The ship can fit 12 guests and a crew of 28, according to Moran Yacht & Ship, which oversaw her construction. She features a master deck with a private jacuzzi, full-service spa, lap pool, movie theater, and outdoor fireplace.

While her final sale price was not public, she was listed for 149 million euros (about $161 million at current exchange rates), and at a charity auction in January, one week aboard the ship went for $2.4 million, according to industry outlet Yacht Charter Fleet.

Barry Diller: Eos

Barry Diller , the chairman of digital media company IAC, co-owns the megayacht Eos with his wife, fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg , who is immortalized by a figurehead sculpture by Anh Duong.

One of the largest private sailing yachts in the world, the three-masted Lürssen schooner measures 93 meters long. She took three years to be built before being delivered to Diller in 2009, and since then, little has come to light about her interior and features.

The power couple has hosted many celebrities on the Eos, which spends her summers crisscrossing the Mediterranean and New Year ' s Eve in St. Barts . Over the years, guests have included Oprah Winfrey, Emma Thompson, Anderson Cooper, and Bezos, leading some to believe she provided inspiration for his Koru.

Jim Clark: Athena

Netscape founder Jim Clark purchased the 90-meter sailing yacht Athena in 2004.

"I could easily have built a 50- or 60-meter motor yacht that would have had the same space as Athena, but I was never really interested in building a motor yacht," he told Boat International in 2016. "To my eye, she's one of the most gorgeous large sailing yachts, maybe the most gorgeous large sailing yacht in the world."

Athena has room for 10 guests and 21 crewmembers, and the only change Clark says he'd make in her design is adding more space for his kids.

"If I was forced to change something, I would convert the office on the lower deck into a children's room," he said.

The former Stanford professor tried to sell her at various points — listing her for $95 million in 2012 , $69 million in 2016, and $59 million in 2017 — but she has yet to change hands.

Larry Ellison: Musashi

Oracle founder Larry Ellison has owned several superyachts over the years, including the Katana, the Ronin, and the Rising Sun — which he sold to fellow billionaire David Geffen .

He purchased his current boat, Musashi, in 2011 for a reported $160 million from custom-yacht giant Feadship.

Named after a famous samurai warrior, the 88-meter-long yacht has both Japanese and Art Deco-inspired design elements. She also boasts amenities including an elevator, swimming pool, beauty salon, gym, and basketball court.

Ellison is known for his extravagant spending — private islands, jets, a tennis tournament — and yachting is among his favorite and most expensive hobbies. He took up racing them in the 1990s and financed the America's Cup-winning BMW Oracle Racing team .

Laurene Powell Jobs: Venus

Steve Jobs' wife, investor and philanthropist Laurene Powell Jobs, inherited a nearly finished 78-meter yacht named Venus when the Apple cofounder died in 2011.

After spending years vacationing on Ellison's yachts, Jobs wanted one for himself. He designed Venus with French starchitect and decorator Philippe Starck , and she was worth $130 million at completion.

"Venus comes from the philosophy of minimum," Starck said of her design. "The elegance of the minimum, approaching dematerialization."

Jobs and Starck began working together in 2007, the designer told Vanity Fair , and held monthly meetings over four years. Venus was delivered in 2012 to Jobs' specification: six identical cabins, a design to ensure spaces of absolute silence, and the most up-to-date technology.

"There will never again be a boat of that quality again. Because never again will two madmen come together to accomplish such a task," Starck told the magazine. "It was not a yacht that Steve and I were constructing, we were embarked on a philosophical action, implemented according to a quasi-religious process. We formed a single brain with four lobes."

Charles Simonyi: Norn

Early Microsoft employee Charles Simonyi has purchased two megayachts from the German shipyard Lürssen: the 90-meter Norn and 71-meter Skat.

Delivered in 2023, Norn is full of luxe features, including an outdoor cinema and a pool floor that lifts to become a light-up dancefloor. She shares a militaristic style with Skat , which Simonyi sold in 2021.

Skats's name is derived from the Danish word for treasure, and she had a listing price of 56.5 million euros and was launched in 2002.

"The yacht is to be home away from my home in Seattle, and its style should match the style of the house, adapted for the practicalities of the sea," Simonyi once said .

Sergey Brin: Dragonfly

Google cofounder Sergey Brin has built a flotilla of yachts, boats, and toys known as the "Fly Fleet."

Named after a once-secret Google product , the largest of Brin's armada is the sleek Dragonfly , which boasts a movie theater and a helipad. The 73-meter-long vessel was built by the Australian shipyard Silver Yachts and can fit up to 18 guests and 16 crew members, according to SuperYacht Times.

Also in his fleet is the superyacht Butterfly, a mere 38 meters long. Often moored in the Bay Area, her crewmembers spend their downtime kitesurfing and giving swimming lessons to local kids.

The rest of his marine lineup includes a smaller boat called Firefly, as well as Jet Skis, foilboards, dinghies, and kiteboards. She takes a team of 50 full-time employees to manage, steer, and maintain the entire operation.

On board with Mike Potter, owner of 58m Superyacht Seawolf

Superyacht owner Mike Potter had made his fortune by the age of 51 – and that’s when the fun really started, with sailing, diving, vintage planes and family getting his full attention. Cécile Gauert catches up with the high-flying Canadian...

Mike Potter is trim and fit at 74 and as comfortable in a flight suit as in a wetsuit. The owner of 58.8 metre explorer Seawolf is an honorary colonel in the Royal Canadian Air Force and displays a very Canadian modesty about his accomplishments.

When I ask him about his background, he paints a quick portrait. “I was in the software business. I was very fortunate that it did well and I was comfortable bringing in professional management. It was a fair size by the time I did, so that allowed me to retire in the sense that I didn’t have to go to the office every day.”

Business articles tell the story differently. Potter forged a reputation as a trailblazer in the tech world, which earned him a lifetime achievement award from the Ottawa business community in 2016. He studied mathematics and physics, earned a master’s degree at the University of British Columbia and served with the Royal Canadian Navy.

He joined Quasar Systems in 1972 when he was 28. Two years later, he bought the company and renamed it Cognos. He took it public in 1986, following the success of the PowerHouse programming language that earned the company international renown. The largest computer software company in Canada, it employed 1,100 people worldwide by the early 1990s, and in 1995 Potter stepped aside. In 2007, IBM acquired what was now a major developer of business intelligence software for $4.9 billion.

He had been all in from the day he started and then, at 51, as the company was thriving, he decided to step aside, a move he was comfortable to make but which surprised some. He recalls telling a journalist who asked why he’d left such a successful company: “What’s the alternative? Is it better to step down when things are not going well?” He had decided it was time for him to do other things, explore his passions for sailing and flying and to raise a family. He did not retire exactly, but he had a lot more time to pursue personal interests, and a well-run family office allowed him to roam far and wide – “actually they encourage it”, he says.

An avid pilot since his early twenties, he started acquiring a collection of vintage aeroplanes in 2000 and in 2003 formed a non-profit organisation called Vintage Wings of Canada, which showcases restored aircraft at air shows and in a small museum.

“It’s an aspect of my life that has received a bit of attention in the community,” he says. “I have a collection of antique airplanes, mainly Second World War fighters, many flown by Canadians. We have British and American airplanes: Spitfire, Hurricane, Mustang, Kittyhawk, Corsair, and some even more rare examples from the 1930s and 1940s, plus a carbon-fibre aerobatic airplane and a 1950s era Canadian bush plane.” He has flown everything from gliders to a Dassault Falcon 200.

“I find sailors and pilots are often people who have the same interests,” he says. And he does love sailing. “I really grew up on the water. I was born in England, actually. My family moved to Canada when I was seven but I still remember living in a town called Southend right on the Thames Estuary. We bounced around with my family when we came to Canada, but we settled in Victoria on Vancouver Island. I grew up there and started sailing, and then I joined the Navy and went through military college.”

In the 1990s, he had a semi-custom 13 metre sailboat built in Bristol, Rhode Island. He took it from Cape Cod across the North Atlantic to Ireland and Scotland , south to the Canaries, back across the Atlantic to the Caribbean , and finally north again, completing the North Atlantic circle in Cape Cod in 1995. Friends joined him on each leg, making every trip a fondly remembered experience.

Eventually, he tapped naval architect Bill Langan, a yacht designer with Sparkman & Stephens , to create a custom 29 metre sailing yacht, which they built at Vitters . He kept that yacht for 10 years, sailing with his family throughout Europe, in the Mediterranean, the Baltic and around the UK, and in North America on both coasts as far north as Alaska .

Having a chance to spend time with his three growing daughters and exploring the world is what got the sailor into a motor yacht. He bought Seawolf , a converted ocean-going tug with its original 1956 engines, in 2008.

“What motivated me to do it really was my kids, who were four, nine and 11 at the time. I wanted several things that I wasn’t getting in a small sailboat. I wanted a little more space, so the kids could bring their friends, and I wanted to have the ability to carry equipment – toys, they call them. I wanted to carry things that could allow us to have activities aside from sailing. And I wanted the ability to go anywhere in the world. I wanted to discover the planet; not go just to the Caribbean and the Med.”

A broker brought to his attention a converted tug named Dolce Far Niente . Potter had started to think about trading his sailing yacht for a more modern explorer yacht, but when he saw the tug, as he says, “I fell in love with it”. It was more boat than he was intending to build, but he envisioned all that he could do with that deck space and range. The boat was built to go in any kind of weather, but it was more than a tough boat. It had a lovely aura of a bygone age .

The first time the tug caught the attention of the yachting world at large was at the 2002 Monaco Yacht Show, midway through a conversion carried out at Astilleros de Mallorca by a previous owner. The tug, built in the Netherlands and launched in 1957 as Clyde for L Smit & Co, was known for several feats of strength, including simultaneously towing two aircraft carriers and pulling supertankers through typhoons. But beyond that, it was a very good-looking boat, even before the conversion that brought it closer to yacht standards.

“She’s beautiful,” says Potter. “Although she was originally built in the 1950s as a commercial boat, I think the naval architect at the time made some effort to build a ship with beautiful lines. Then the conversion was done by somebody who was sensitive to that and kept those beautiful lines, so I liked that,” he says. “And it has a huge boat deck for storage. I put an 8.5 metre sailboat [a classic Herreshoff replica] on it and an 8.8 metre tender, which we use a lot for diving, plus I have a rowboat with a sliding seat, several kayaks and paddleboards, jet skis and most of all we have a massive amount of diving gear. We have a Nitrox system, we have a hyperbaric barometric chamber for emergencies, which I hope we never have to use, and enough equipment to put a dozen people of any size or skill level in the water at the same time.”

He still dives frequently and it’s a passion he now shares with his children. “I think that Seawolf has really made them divers more than sailors, but that’s OK. They like the water. That’s the most important thing,” he says.

Potter and the crew have a real bond with the boat and enjoy its history. The big six-cylinder Smit-MAN engines painted green chug steadily, watched over by an attentive engineer and are a sight to behold. The steady sound they make as the boat moves from anchorage to anchorage at night is as soothing as a lullaby.

The past is alive in the beautifully updated interior. A historically accurate model of Clyde is on board to remind all who sail in her of the ship’s past. It was a gift to Potter from his partner, Diane Cramphin, a designer who worked in secret with Seawolf ’s first officer to find it. She surprised him with it, and he loves to look at all its accurate details.

In August 2013, Potter helped organise an encounter in the Netherlands with the tug’s sistership Elbe . Like Seawolf , she’s had many lives, serving for a time as a support ship for Greenpeace, and now she’s a floating museum. The encounter took place in the boats’ original port of Maassluis, near Rotterdam, and the event attracted a crowd of enthusiasts and former Smit employees and their families. “We were surrounded by thousands of local people, many of whom went back a couple of generations, who were building and operating these tugs in the 1950s,” Potter says. In the crowd, tears in his eyes, was the son of the boat’s original designer, JCA Hoogenbosch.

This is very meaningful to Potter, who makes sure the boat is in tip-top shape. “Eventually this boat will have a new life with another family,” he says.

Having the boat has “given me a fantastic lifestyle being around family and friends. They say I am an active owner. I’ve done typically 80 days a year. I will probably do more than 100 days this year, but I’d live on it if I could.”

He doesn’t because he still has obligations shoreside and this allows Seawolf occasionally to be available for charter . The knowledgeable crew includes a marine biologist. Recently, Seawolf has cruised the Pacific from French Polynesia , to Fiji , Bali and the Philippines.

In spite of his attachment to Seawolf , with his children growing up and becoming independent, he thought he might have fewer opportunities to spend time with them, so a few months ago he put the boat on the market. However, shortly after we discussed his plans to get back into sailing, he took another trip aboard Seawolf to the Solomon Islands . During the voyage, he decided to withdraw it from sale. He told his broker he was simply having too much fun. “ Seawolf allows us to do so many different activities and keep hyperactive on every trip on board,” he says.“I love this boat."

NOTE to U.S. Customs & Border Protection

NOTE TO U.S. CUSTOMS & BORDER PROTECTION

Due to the international and fluid nature of the yachting business and the fact there is no global central industry listing service to which all charter yachts subscribe it is impossible to ascertain a truly up-to-date view of the market. We are a news and information service and not always informed when yachts leave the charter market, or when they are recently sold and renamed it is not clear if they are still for charter. Whilst we use our best endeavors to maintain accurate information, the existence of a listing on this website should in no way supersede official documentation supplied by representatives of a yacht.
