The exterior design of the DREAM superyacht was carried out by Studio Vafiadis . It was Studio Vafiadis’s intention when he created the exterior of the Dream that it would appear light and airy while yet being excellent at sea.

He was successful in accomplishing his goal. An aluminum superstructure and steel hull combine to form the Dream, a boat built for love.

DREAM has a lot of water toys that guests can use to make the Mediterranean their own private playground.

She also has a water slide that allows guests to get from the sun deck to the water in a few seconds.

Who is ralph de la torre the ceo of steward health care with a $40 million yacht.

Once a respected cardiac surgeon, Dr. Ralph de la Torre, chairman and CEO of Steward Health Care , has been publicly criticized for living a lavish lifestyle — owning not one but two yachts — while running his company into the ground.

De la Torre bought his $40-million yacht after Steward sold its hospital properties to Medical Trust Properties (MTP), a real-estate investment trust, in 2016 — a deal that resulted in a massive payday for executives while leaving the Steward-operated hospitals to face steep annual rents as they transitioned to being tenants under MTP’s ownership.

On Monday, those financial troubles came to a head when Steward filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy .

When de la Torre first started Steward in collaboration with Cerberus Capital Management, a New York-based private equity firm, his self-described goal was to create an affordable approach to healthcare that served vulnerable populations.

Instead, doctors, nurses and elected officials have criticized the for-profit network for prioritizing their own profits over patient care.

Here’s everything you need to know about the man behind Steward's downfall.

6 jaw-dropping revelations Stunning takeaways from Steward Health Care's bankruptcy filing

Does Steward’s CEO have a $40 million-dollar yacht?

In February of this year, Boston Globe columnist Brian McGrory revealed that Steward’s CEO owns not one, but two yachts.

De la Torre bought the $40 million, 190-foot yacht named the "Amaral" a few years ago, according to McGrory’s reporting for the Globe . De la Torre's other yacht is a $15 million, 90-foot sport fishing boat named the ‘Jaruco.'

The Amaral is a massive, six-bedroom yacht that costs about $4 million a year to run, according to SuperYacht Fan .

What will happen to Good Sam? What to know about Steward Health Care amid bankruptcy, financial crisis

According to reporting by The American Prospect , Steward acquired at least two business jets and a private suite at Dallas’s AA Arena, where the NBA’s Mavericks play.

Where did Ralph de la Torre work before Steward?

In 2008, de la Torre became the CEO of Caritas Christi Health Care, a struggling hospital network in Massachusetts. A few years later, he made a deal with Cerberus Capital Management to start Steward Health Care and invest money into struggling hospitals.

Is Ralph de la Torre a medical doctor?

De la Torre graduated from Duke University in 1988 and got his medical degree from a joint program between Harvard Medical School and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1992, according to his biography.

Before his stint as CEO of Steward, he was the founder and CEO of the Cardiovascular Institute at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) and Cardiovascular Management Associates, according to his biography on Steward’s website . He also worked as the Chief of Cardiac Surgery at BIDMC.

What is Ralph de la Torre’s salary?

According to reporting by The American Prospect , an individual familiar with Steward’s finances estimated he makes about $16 million per year.

In 2020, de la Torre bought Steward from Cerberus for $335 million, but with his own stake in the investment company, used Steward’s cash to pay himself a $100 million dividend, according to that same reporting.

Where does Ralph de la Torre live?

According to reporting by the Globe , de la Torre lives in a Dallas "mansion" and shares a neighborhood with former President George W. Bush and Mark Cuban, owner of the Dallas Mavericks and longtime panelist on ABC's "Shark Tank."

When de la Torre was living in Boston, he lived in a seven-bedroom home in West Newton that he sold for more than $6 million in 2013, according to reporting by Boston.com .

Who is Ralph de la Torre’s wife?

According to reporting by the Globe , de la Torre met his first wife, Wing Cheung de la Torre, a native of Hong Kong while he was in medical school. They married in 2004 and had twin boys in 2008. In 2018, she filed for divorce.

He later remarried Nicole Acosta, a self-described real estate representative, according to the Globe.

15 million yacht

See Mark Zuckerberg’s glossy new $300M, 287-foot superyacht ‘Launchpad’

All aboard S.S. Facebook.

Mark Zuckerberg has reportedly gifted himself a $300 million megayacht, dubbed “Launchpad,” ahead of his 40th birthday.

The staggering 387-foot-long vessel was seen floating at Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., after arriving at its berth earlier this week, The Sun reported Thursday.

The multi-layered luxury ship’s sleek exterior was designed by Espen Øino International and boasts a steel hull and an aluminum superstructure, according to SuperYacht Times.

Reportedly ranking as the 45th largest yacht in the world, the interiors are just as aesthetically pleasing and reportedly executed by Zuretti Interior Design company, a France-based company specializing in unique and custom yacht design.

The breathtakingly beautiful floater stands out with a navy blue theme matching an American flag perched proudly on its wood-paneled stern.

There are several outdoor areas where the social media maven will be able to relax with his family and the indoor levels feature glass paneling allowing for tons of natural light.

There also appears to be a helipad perfect for whenever the Facebook co-founder wants to travel to his vessel by air.

The Feadship-built yacht, built in 2022, can comfortably fit 24 guests aboard, requires a crew of 48, and is said to cost $30 million a year for upkeep and usage, according to Superyachtfan.com .

Boatworld insiders have been buzzing with speculation that Zuckerberg is the owner of the newly minted mega-cruise ever since it made its main voyage from the Netherlands last week.

The tech titan was spotted touring the Russian-commissioned megayacht in early March, though the impressive boat didn’t arrive stateside until this week due to sanctions, according to The Sun.

The website reported that Zuckerberg purchased the pricey yacht – along with its own $30 million partner boat — most likely as an early 40th birthday present to himself.

The boat reportedly traveled to Florida after being granted special permission to be imported just weeks ahead of Zuckerberg’s birthday on May 14.

Zuckerberg’s yacht is just 30 feet shorter than the length of fellow billionaire Jeff Bezos’ 417-foot megayacht Koru, which the Amazon boss snagged for a whopping $500 million.

Zuckerberg’s rep did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.

The global megarich are paying up to $2 million a week for superyacht rentals but smaller boat charters are down

Luxury yachts in the harbour of Saint Tropez on August 20, 2017 in Saint-Tropez, France.

Sales of luxury yachts may be down but the world’s megarich have found another, more instantaneous way to get their high seas kicks — chartering a swanky boat instead.

Total chartered days for yachts longer than 50 meters has increased since 2020, according to  IYC , a global firm specializing in the sale and charters of luxury yachts. Vessels between 60 to 70 meters posted the most growth last year, at 10%, whereas shorter yachts aren’t nearly as popular as before.

IYC Chief Executive Officer  Raphael Sauleau  said he’s seeing more customers willing to pay a higher premium for the ultimate ocean experience. Clients are willing to pay more for a so-called advanced provisioning allowance, which covers on-board expenses like food and service, of up to 40% compared to the standard 30% of the total charter fee, he said.

New customers are coming to yachting “with an appetite for larger yachts,” Sauleau said. Compared with smaller vessels, these floating villas come with more privacy, better facilities and a larger crew. A bigger range of large models that’s become available over the past three years has also contributed to higher bookings, he added.

Fraser Yachts , a major international broker, is experiencing a similar phenomenon, receiving 7% more charter bookings for yachts over 60 meters in 2023 versus prior years. Across yachts of all sizes however, the number of charter days reported last year was 19% down on 2021.

It’s a quirk that would seem to chime with the trend of super luxury brands defying a broader luxury slowdown. Hermes International SCA, for example, saw Chinese buyers  snap up its products . Hermes typically caters to the most affluent customers, making it more resilient in a challenging luxury goods market.

At the same time, sales of floating palaces are waning, the Superyacht Times said in a  report  in March. Sales of superyachts, generally defined as boats longer than 30 meters, contracted 20% in 2023 from 2022 and are well down on 2021, when many rich people splurged on boats to travel in a safe and exclusive way.

Stacy Fischer-Rosenthal , the president of luxury travel and lifestyle consultancy Fischer Travel Enterprises, said she’s expecting to help clients charter at least 10 yachts this year. Most of the interest is around megayachts — or yachts above 60 meters — and prices range from about $700,000 to $2 million a week, she said.

Wealthy people may be shying away from outright purchases due to geopolitical worries and global conflicts.

Fear of more widespread fighting in the Middle East and Russian’s war in Ukraine “seem to make some buyers nervous, particularly those in the market for very large new builds,” the Superyacht Times said.

It sure looks like Mark Zuckerberg is taking a brand new superyacht out to celebrate his 40th birthday

  • It seems as if Mark Zuckerberg will celebrate his 40th birthday on the  megayacht, Launchpad .
  • The yachting world has speculated for months that the Meta CEO is the owner of the vessel.
  • Now, both the boat and Zuckerberg's private jet have landed in Panama.

Insider Today

All signs point to Mark Zuckerberg celebrating his 40th birthday on what many speculate is his brand-new superyacht Launchpad .

The boating world has been buzzing about Launchpad — a 118-meter yacht built by the Dutch shipyard Feadship — for months, with rumors swirling that her owner is none other than the Meta CEO. But in the yachting world, where privacy is paramount , no party would confirm her owner.

"It is Feadship's standard policy to never divulge any information about our yachts with reference to ownership, costs, or delivery, etc," Feadship, the ship's builder, wrote to Business Insider in March. "Whether it is an 18-meter Feadship from the 1960s or a 118-meter Feadship from the 21st century, we do not share private information."

Representatives for Zuckerberg did not respond to requests for comment from BI.

Now there's even more evidence: The megayacht arrived in Panama on Monday, making her way there from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where she's predominantly been moored since she made her maiden voyage across the Atlantic in March, according to public ship-tracking data. Wingman, the support superyacht that he is suspected to have purchased with Launchpad, made the journey with her.

Zuckerberg's plane also landed in Panama on Monday, per a private jet tracker, and if his Instagram is any indication, he was on board.

Putting two and two together — along with the many other clues linking Zuckerberg to the yacht — we can surmise that the Meta CEO is likely kicking off his new decade aboard his new toy.

Little is known about the luxury vessel, which was said to have been built for a sanctioned Russian businessman before it was handed over to the Dutch government, which served as a middleman for the purchase. Her final purchase price is unknown, but it's safe to say a yacht of that size from that shipyard would cost nine figures upfront and six figures a year to maintain.

The few photos of Launchpad available on the industry site SuperYacht Times show there appears to be a helipad and a swimming pool on her main deck.

A vessel of her size can typically sleep dozens of guests and crewmembers and likely has an expansive gym (where Zuckerberg could practice his jiu-jitsu), a spa, a movie room, and a garage to fit plenty of toys like his viral hydrofoil .

Zuckerberg's name was first connected to Launchpad in December when reports swirled that he visited Feadship's shipyard in the Netherlands. By March, yachting blogs like eSysman SuperYachts and Autoevolution suggested he officially snagged the boat at a $300 million price tag. Launchpad also bears the flag of the Marshall Islands, a US territory that is commonplace for American buyers to register their ships.

We will never know for sure whose name is on her title, so unless Zuckerberg confirms he's Launchpad's owner, we will have to wait for an invitation to Zuck's birthday party to confirm.

Repairs to the Cape Coral Yacht Club Park Fishing Pier could cost up to $6.5 million

15 million yacht

Nearly two years after Hurricane Ian hit and devastated south Cape Coral, the city council is planning to bring back the Yacht Club Park Fishing Pier in a big way.

"Basically the question that needs to be answered is how long do we want the pier to last?" Councilmember Bill Steinke said.

The city will discuss the pier's next steps, including deciding the cost of repairs, estimating permitting and construction duration, and its longevity.

The repairs, restoration, and reconstruction of the pier could cost between $4.3 million and $6.5 million.

The topic will be discussed and potentially voted on at this Wednesday's regular meeting at 10:30 a.m. in council chambers.

Here's what you need to know:

Pier damage

Hurricane Ian hit Cape Coral on Sept. 28, causing major damage to Cape Coral's Yacht Club Community Park and all of its facilities.

The pier is structurally compromised, with the decking and railing destroyed, and the fish cleaning stations and benches nowhere to be found.

Pile Restoration

Kimley Horn, a consulting firm focusing on public and private developments, performed two levels of investigation of the existing piles with two options on how to move forward with repairs.

Piles are driven into the ground and used as foundations for docks, and they can be wooden, concrete, or metal.

The first option would take a phased approach toward restoration of the piling, with phase one restoring 24 damaged piles and those disturbed during the investigation. Additional pile deterioration may be identified during the repair process.

This option would provide an estimated 15 years of service life for the pier, with subsequent investigation required to restore additional piles as deterioration is identified.

The second option is the complete restoration of the piling at once, providing an estimated 25 years of service life with no subsequent restoration required.

Full pier reconstruction

Two options were presented by the firm on how to proceed.

Option one would install new decking, rails, and sun shelter once the existing pile restoration has been completed with whichever pile option is chosen.

A U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Nationwide Permit for maintenance would be required due to the potential disturbance of the river bottom during pile restoration.

The estimated permitting time frame for this option would be between six to nine months.

Option two is a complete reconstruction of the pier, including new piles with deck rails and a shade structure. A general permit requiring multi-agency review would be required.

The estimated permitting time frame for this option would be between 12 to 18 months.

The city has three overall options with pile restoration and pier reconstruction in mind.

If the city decided to only repair the damaged piles, the cost of full construction would be more than $4.3 million, take six to nine months of permitting, and take six to 10 months of construction.

Repairing all the piles would cost over $6.5 million, take six to nine months of permitting, and take six to 10 months of construction.

The city could also remove and replace all the piles, and that would cost over 5.4 million, take 12 to 18 months of permitting, and take six to 10 months of construction.

Cape Coral will determine funding options in the future, and potentially allocate $2 million from the state, which is to be used toward Yacht Club shoreline, beach, and pier restoration, to the project.

Race to Erase Raises $1.5 Million for MS Research With the Help of Natasha Bedingfield, A Great Big World and Caroline Rhea

Natasha Bedingfield

Hollywood’s support for Race to Erase MS kept rolling into its 31st year Friday at the Fairmont Century Plaza in Los Angeles, helping the Nancy Davis -led charity raise $1.5 million to multiple sclerosis research.

The night’s headlining musical act, Natasha Bedingfield , played a medley of hers and others’ songs, including her 2000s-era hit “Unwritten,” which was recently given a new life in “Anyone but You,” and Bill Withers’ “Lean on Me,” which she sang alongside Davis and friends. Bedingfield was introduced by Casey Affleck.

Popular on Variety

King said he has experienced physical differences in recent years, including walking and, most recently, using his voice.

“This is going to be one of the first times that me and Ian [Axel] have performed together in a very long time,” King, who walks with a cane, said. “It’s an honor to be here with you all and with Nancy raising such awareness.”

The Davis family, including 93-year-old matriarch Barbara Davis, has been a charitable force in L.A. for decades. Barbara founded the Children’s Diabetes Foundation in 1977 and spearheaded the Carousel of Hope annual event, which has drawn Sidney Poitier, Oprah Winfrey, Jennifer Lopez, Shirley McClaine, and Robert DeNiro over its 30-plus years.

“This [event] would not happen if not for a lot of big dreams being answered and the generosity of the Hollywood community,” Nancy told Variety . “Everyone has been here to support us. I’m so grateful for that.”

Since its inception, Race to Erase MS has had high-profile musical performances including Stevie Wonder and Sir Elton John, as well as media-friendly multi-year attendees such as Tommy Hilfiger, Paris Hilton, and Lindsay Lohan. 

Veteran comedienne Caroline Rhea made the tough gig of keeping the seen-it-all crowd engaged during dinner look easy, helping a live auction raise more than $160,000 from the audience of 750.

Two auction items included a rare-breed Australian labradoodle puppy that went for $18,000, and eight seats at Rick and Kathy Hilton’s annual Christmas pajama house party that went for $41,000.

Other celebrity attendees included Jessica Lowndes, Ioan Gruffudd, Emma Slater, Bijou Phillips, Joely Fisher, David Arquette, Carmen Electra, and Tia Carrere.
