Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of social media giant Meta (formerly Facebook), recently sailed his $300 million (approximately 2.163 billion yuan) superyacht to the United States.It is reported that the yacht is named "Project 1010" and is currently located in Port Everglades, Lauderdale, Florida.
Although Zuckerberg's assets have exceeded a staggering $140 billion, he has never set foot in the world of superyachts before. Perhaps, he is more interested in buying an island in a corner of the world or building an underground building to cope with the legendary doomsday.
Zuckerberg's move comes just before his 40th birthday on May 14, sparking speculation that the yacht may be a birthday gift.
The yacht is 387 feet long (approximately 118 meters), with a gross tonnage of more than 5,000 GT. It adopts a chrome-plated hull and shines in the sun. Its size is second only to Amazon founder Jeff Bezos’ $500 million superyacht "Koru" (127 meters).
"Project 1010" was originally commissioned by a Russian billionaire, and Zuckerberg quickly acquired it after visiting the yacht in the Netherlands in early March.
The superyacht’s midnight blue exterior was designed by renowned yacht designers, while the interior was designed by French studio Zuretti.
As can be seen from the sea chart, the yacht is equipped with a main deck swimming pool and a large helipad, and the upper deck is equipped with a hangar. On the top of the yacht, there seems to be a unique pod-style landscape lounge and spacious beach club wrapped in curved glass, like a luxurious palace on the sea.
