Sailing yacht KORU: What we know so far about Jeff Bezos’ 127 meter yacht

By Nina Done   15 December 2022

Recent footage showcasing the vast proportions of the Amazon founder’s new 127m (417ft) Oceanco sailing yacht KORU , known throughout her build as Project Y721, has provided some valuable insight into one of the yachting industry’s best-kept secrets.

The megayacht’s specifications and amenities had been kept completely under wraps until she was forced to move from the Dutch yard’s primary facilities in Alblasserdam to get her masts fitted elsewhere in order to avoid dismantling the Koningshaven Bridge after huge public backlash. 

In August, the yacht was spotted in the Port of Rotterdam after her trio of masts had been successfully stepped, with pictures barely doing justice to the monolithic proportions of the sailing spars, reportedly up to 70-80 meters tall.

World yacht rankings

KORU will replace Oceanco’s BLACK PEARL for second place in the world's largest sailing yacht rankings behind Nobiskrug's 143m (469ft) sailing yacht A .

Oceanco's newest yacht is understood to have an internal volume of 3,300 GT and will undoubtedly offer a wealth of luxurious accommodation and amenities. Although we have scant information about the yacht's features, we do know that she will have an aft dip pool along with a further Jacuzzi on her sundeck and variety of alfresco social spaces. She also has a crow's nest attached to her central mast, offering lofty panoramic views for her more adventurous guests.

From the pictures we can see KORU also benefits from full-length windows across her superstructure allowing plenty of light to infuse her interiors. 

Design inspiration

Sailing yacht Koru docked in Netherlands

Built with a steel hull and aluminum superstructure with teak decking, she reportedly takes her design cues from the 93-meter Lürssen sailing yacht EOS , perhaps inspired by the entrepreneur’s visits to this yacht in previous years.

Showcasing a midnight-blue hull with a distinctive red stripe running along her waterline, KORU’s exterior styling mirrors this traditional schooner style, with an elongated bowsprite and canoe stern. Another similar style yacht is the 90m (295ft) Royal Huisman sailing yacht ATHENA . 

Kinetic energy technology

As expected from a tech entrepreneur, known for pushing boundaries and driving innovation, sailing yacht KORU will be trialing a prototype for a new kinetic energy recovery system. This is based on a conversion of wave induced motion, heave, pitch and roll into electric energy, with initial tests showing early promise. 

With a nod to her green credentials, this will provide an additional power source for the yacht allowing for more sustainable cruising.

Tenders and toys

Access to sailing yacht KORU will be via folding passerelles, discreetly hidden in the yacht's hull on either side. Rescue and work tender launches will likely take place further forward, as per regulations. Recent pictures show a large hatch opening in her lower deck aft, which may contain further tenders and toys, but may also double as a beach club. 

Jeff Bezos support yacht Wingman

Sailing yacht KORU comes complete with a support vessel built by Damen Yachts, reportedly known as 75 meter (247ft) yacht WINGMAN .

Once delivered, it is understood that she will act as an official support boat for the sailing yacht , carrying the larger toys, including a submarine for thrilling excursions beneath the waves, plus a helicopter and landing pad. She is also believed to play host to an array of PWCs, with rumors of a speed boat and luxury car adding to the fleet, as well as providing accommodation for additional crew and staff.

When is sailing yacht KORU expected to be delivered?

From here she will undertake the all-important rounds of sea trials before being delivered to her owner sometime in the new year. It is understood that the yacht will be officially christened KORU upon delivery, and will operate under the Cayman Islands' flag. It is not believed that superyacht KORU will be available to charter.

Jeff Bezos’ Giant Yacht Is Apparently Too Big to Anchor Near Others in Florida

The superyacht, called Koru, arrived in Port Everglades in Florida on Nov. 22, and has been docked near a more-than 610-foot-long oil tanker named Magnolia State.

Jeff Bezos’s yacht docked in a port. There are palm trees in the foreground and cranes in the background.

By Lola Fadulu

First, Jeff Bezos’ new megayacht was too big to pass under a bridge in the Netherlands. Now, the massive vessel’s size — it’s more than 400 feet long — has played a role in preventing it from keeping company with other private yachts in Port Everglades, Fla., where it is anchored.

Instead, the megayacht, named Koru, is hanging with huge oil tankers and general container ships. The yacht is docked there because of its size and also because of what berths were available in the seaport, according to a spokeswoman for Port Everglades.

Koru is a sailing yacht, unlike the much bigger diesel-powered boats popular with other billionaires. It is the largest sailing yacht in the world, according to Oceanco , the Dutch company that finished building the boat earlier this year.

The deck space of the three-masted schooner has three Jacuzzis and a swimming pool. The inside has a “timeless, contemporary style,” according to Oceanco, with natural wood tones, warm neutrals, and patterned textiles. It also includes a mermaid on the bow that appears to resemble Mr. Bezos’ partner, Lauren Sánchez.

Koru, which Bloomberg estimated cost about $500 million to build, arrived to the Florida port on Nov. 22 after departing from Gibraltar earlier this month, according to Marine Traffic , a real-time maritime data platform.

It was unclear why exactly Mr. Bezos docked his yacht there, but earlier this month he said that he would be moving back to Miami to be closer to his parents and to Ms. Sánchez.

Mr. Bezos had since 1994 lived in Seattle , where he started Amazon from his garage. He has already purchased two mansions in South Florida, one for $68 million and another for $79 million, according to Bloomberg News .

Bloomberg estimated his net worth to be $171 billion.

Port Everglades charges yachts larger than 400 feet at least $309.50 per 24 hours. Ships that have been closest to Koru include a more-than 610-foot-long oil tanker named Magnolia State .

Koru is Maori for “coil” or “loop” and has come to symbolize new life, growth, and peace in traditional Maori art.

Mr. Bezos’ journey with his new yacht started off rocky . Last year, city officials in Rotterdam, the Dutch city, initially agreed to dismantle De Hef, a 95-year-old bridge, so that Koru could pass through it from the nearby city where it had been built. The dismantling process would have taken more than a day, and putting it back together would have too. But after uproar from the community — including calls to throw eggs at the boat as it would have passed — Oceanco decided against it and the yacht was towed to a different location to have its masts attached.

Bezos ran into some trouble earlier this year when it came out that the Koningshaven Bridge in the Netherlands might have to be dismantled to let Y721 Koru pass through, as the megayacht’s 229-foot masts exceeded the bridge’s 131-foot clearance. City officials briefly agreed to disassemble the bridge but then decided against it in the face of public backlash, according to The New York Times. That negative reaction included a threat from residents to show up and pelt rotten eggs at the $500 million behemoth.

Oceanco, the company that built Y721 Koru, ultimately decided against applying for the permit that would be required for dismantling Koningshaven Bridge, and the boat was instead quietly towed to another shipyard without its mast.

The iconic historic De Hef - Koningshavenbrug Bridge in the Dutch port city of Rotterdam may be dismantled for Jeff Bezos superyacht to pass under, as the mast of the sailboat exceeds the height of the bridge. The two-tower with swing lift bridge is an old level steel railroad bridge connecting the island, Noordereiland in the Maas river in the Southern part of Rotterdam. The bridge was built in 1877 and suffered damage during the 1940 German bombings. Since 2017 after the renovation work, the municipality promised that the bridge would never be dismantled again. The superyacht for the multibillionaire chairman of Amazon is built in the Dutch shipyards of Oceanco. The city council said in a statement that if they will proceed the cost of the deconstruction will be covered by the shipbuilder.

Bezos’s completed yacht will be accompanied by a 246-foot-long “shadow yacht” called YS7512, Damen Yacht’s largest-ever support vessel. It will fit 45 people onboard, feature a helicopter hangar and storage for Jet Skis and other water toys and is reportedly called Abeona , according to Boat International .

jeff bezos mega yacht koru

Koru is a 127-metre sailing yacht currently delivered from Oceanco in the Netherlands. Reportedly commissioned for Amazon founder Jeff Bezos , the superyacht is a three-masted schooner built with a steel hull and aluminium superstructure. The yacht is the world’s largest sailing yacht and the longest yacht built in the Netherlands. The yacht was constructed at Oceanco’s Alblasserdam facilities and later moved to Rotterdam where she waited to complete sea trials at a dock in Eemhaven.

The yacht was delivered to Mallorca in April 2023. The price of Koru has never been disclosed. She is expected to have a gross tonnage of 3300 GT. The yacht is powered by kinetic energy generated by the sails, but like most sailing yachts, she will have engine power as well.

She will join five other Oceanco yachts measuring over 100 metres and ten other superyachts built in the Netherlands measuring over 100 metres.

Koru main features

Koru has a navy hull, red bootstripe, and double-deck wooden coach house. Her profile is characterised by a long bowsprit and a classic canoe stern which will provide enhanced privacy while the yacht is in port. There is also a sizeable dip pool visible on the aft, as well as a crow’s nest on the mizzenmast.

Koru and the De Hef bridge

In 2021, the yacht was the subject of considerable controversy when it emerged that the historic Koningshaven Bridge, also known by the name De Hef, would need to be dismantled to allow the masts to pass under. However, in August 2022, one of the yacht’s masts was seen being transported along the Nieuwe Maas to be stepped elsewhere and the bridge remained untouched. The height of the mainmast is thought to be between 65 and 85 metres.

Koru's secondary yacht

Koru will be accompanied by a support vessel which is thought to be built by Damen Yachting, another Dutch yachtbuilder, which specialises in ocean-going shadow vessels and explorer yachts This yacht will be used to carry toys, tenders and additional crew.

In 2019, there were a number of rumours speculating that Lürrsen’s 136 metre Flying Fox was built for Jeff Bezos; however an Amazon spokesperson refuted the claims.

Jeff Bezos brengt zijn Koru-megajacht naar Antigua in plaats van St. Barths om andere miljardairs te vermijden

De plaatselijke minister van toerisme, charles fernandez, doet zelf een oproep om bezos en zijn vrouw niet lastig te vallen.

6 januari 2024

Scroll down

Om miljardairs te vermijden op St. Barths, heeft Jeff Bezos zijn $ 500 miljoen kostende Koru-megajacht naar Antigua gevaren. Puur zodat de oprichter van Amazon en zijn verloofde een ontspannen tijd kunnen hebben, heeft de minister van Toerisme van het Caribische land het publiek opgeroepen om uit de buurt te blijven van het paar en hun schip.

Jeff Bezos stuurt zijn superjacht naar Antigua

Terwijl de wereld verwacht dat medeoprichter van Amazon Jeff Bezos en zijn verloofde Lauren Sanchez net als andere miljardairs zullen verschijnen in St. Barth’s met hun miljoenen kostende pleziervaartuigen, heeft de. miljardair iedereen verrast door aan te meren in Falmouth Harbour, Antigua, met ’s werelds grootste superjacht in zijn kielzog. Het kleine land, eerder geteisterd door een Oceanco superyacht genaamd de Alfa Nero, verwelkomt nu trots een andere Oceanco schoener.

As the world’s tallest sailing yacht, the Koru, owned by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, graces Falmouth Harbour, Tourism Minister Charles Fernandez has emphasised the need for privacy for the high-profile visitor and his wife during their vacation. https://t.co/FSIaEqfPXZ pic.twitter.com/7zNOwWQKzh — Antigua Observer by NewsCo Ltd (@ByNewsCo) December 27, 2023

Het besluit van Jeff Bezos om zijn vakantie door te brengen in Antigua in plaats van St. Barths kan worden gezien als een verlangen naar privacy en rust. Als ’s werelds rijkste persoon wordt hij voortdurend blootgesteld aan media-aandacht en publieke nieuwsgierigheid. Door te kiezen voor een minder bekende bestemming hoopt hij waarschijnlijk te ontsnappen aan de drukte en het gedoe van paparazzi en nieuwsgierige toeschouwers, zo luidt ook de oproep van minister Fernandez.

Een kans voor het Caribische eiland om te schitteren

De reactie van de Antiguaanse minister van Toerisme, Charles Fernandez, is begrijpelijk. Het bezoek van de miljardair en zijn verloofde is niet alleen een grote eer voor het land, maar kan ook leiden tot een toename van het toerisme. Een persoon met de status en invloed van Bezos kan andere rijke toeristen inspireren om Antigua te bezoeken, wat op zijn beurt de economie van het land ten goede kan komen. In plaats daarvan kunnen we ons concentreren op het verkennen van de prachtige stranden, de rijke cultuur en de adembenemende natuurlijke schoonheid die Antigua te bieden heeft.

Superyachten : Jeff Bezos’ „Koru“ könnte 2023 zweitgrößte Segelyacht der Welt werden

 ·  17.01.2023

Platz 5, "Maltese Falcon": Dank ihrer unvergleichlichen Silhouette ist das Ken-Freivokh-/Gerard-Dijkstra-Design schon aus weiter Ferne zu identifizieren. Joint-Venture-Tycoon Tom Perkins († 2016) wagte mit dem seinerzeit noch nie realisierten Dyna-Rigg eines der aufregendsten Projekte der Yachtgeschichte. 2009 übernahm die griechische Geschäftsfrau Elena Ambrosiadou "Maltese Falcon". 88,00 Meter, Jahr 2006, Segelfläche 2.400 qm

Über zehn Jahre führte der Dreimastschoner "Eos" mit 92,92 Metern die Hitliste an, die alle zwei Jahre vom Megayacht-Magazin BOOTE EXCLUSIV erstellt wird. Mit 142,81 Meter Länge hatte sich 2017 der bei German Naval Yards in Kiel gebaute Dreimast-Gigant "A" (Sailing Yacht A) auf die Führungsposition katapultiert.

Ein weiterer Neueinsteiger schubste die "Eos" damals sogar auf Platz drei. Mit 106 Meter Länge schob sich auch die "Black Pearl" locker an der in Bremen gebauten "Eos" vorbei. Im September 2023 steht die nächste Aktualisierung der Liste an. Spannend wird sein, wie sich die Konstellation ändert und ob es dann vielleicht sogar eine neue Nummer eins geben wird.
