Luxury on the Waves: META CEO's $300 Million Yacht Makes Waves in the Corinthian Gulf

A recent publication by Greek Reporter highlights teh sighting of Mark Zuckerberg’s luxurious yacht, the Launchpad, along with its support vessel, Wingman, in the picturesque Corinthian Gulf. While there’s been no confirmed appearance of Zuckerberg himself, this opulent yacht has certainly caught the eye of locals and authorities alike.

Initially spotted in the Ionian Sea and later near Alepochori—a popular tourist destination west of Athens—the $300 million superyacht has stirred up quite a buzz. The presence of local port officials and police only adds to the intrigue surrounding whether Zuckerberg, his wife, or their guests are onboard.

On Tuesday evening, several crew members from Wingman—an impressive 68-meter vessel featuring a helipad and a 15-meter tender for speedy excursions—ventured into alepochori for some leisure time. It’s anticipated that this floating palace will navigate thru the Corinth Canal soon as it heads toward the stunning Cyclades islands.

This maritime adventure coincides with reports that Zuckerberg is deeply involved in advancing superintelligent AI technology.He’s reportedly taking an active role in recruiting top talent for his projects amid stiff competition from other tech giants. Some insiders suggest he’s even offering lucrative compensation packages that could reach nine figures to attract leading AI researchers to his home base.

Returning to Launchpad—it’s not just any yacht; it resembles a floating city! Spanning larger then a soccer field and racking up around $30 million annually just for upkeep and operations alone makes it truly remarkable.

While specifics about its lavish interiors remain under wraps due to privacy concerns, whispers suggest it features multiple guest suites alongside an extravagant master bedroom complete with its own balcony and opulent bathrooms.Amenities on board include a cinema room for movie nights, virtual reality lounges for immersive experiences, game rooms for entertainment enthusiasts, as well as fitness facilities like gyms and spas equipped with saunas. There are also serene yoga studios perfect for relaxation after long days at sea.Outdoor spaces are equally impressive—with swimming pools inviting sunbathers to unwind alongside alfresco dining areas ideal for enjoying meals under starry skies or soaking in hot tubs while taking in breathtaking views.

Launchpad was crafted by Feadship—a renowned shipyard known not only for building Zuckerberg’s mega yacht but also those belonging to other billionaires like Bill Gates and Michael Latifi.
