It is one of the leading super yachts of the world and its owner is one of the wealthiest. Jeff Bezos' superyacht Koru has been spotted off the picturesque coast of Cala Pi, in Mallorca. The sighting of the 127-meter sailing yacht generated significant attention from both yacht enthusiasts and tourists, who were drawn to its sleek lines and sheer scale.

Built by Oceanco in the Netherlands and delivered in 2023, Koru is one of the second largest sailing yacht in the world. It features three towering masts, a classic schooner-inspired design, and an eco-conscious sailing capability that contrasts with the typical image of fuel-thirsty megayachts. The yacht’s aesthetic blends timeless elegance with cutting-edge engineering, a testament to the craftsmanship and custom design tailored to Bezos’ preferences.

With an impressive volume of 3,300 gross tonnes, Koru can reach speeds of up to 20 knots. It is designed to offer the utmost in luxury, accommodating up to 18 guests, who are looked after by a crew of around 36 to 40. One of its standout features is a large aft-deck swimming pool, perfect for unwinding while enjoying panoramic sea views. With an estimated price tag of $500 million and annual operating costs between $20 and $25 million, Koru is a striking symbol of opulence, sophistication, and maritime ambition.

Accompanying Koru is its dedicated support vessel, Abeona, a 75-meter shadow yacht designed to carry additional crew, water toys, a helicopter, and other amenities not housed on the main vessel. Named after the Roman goddess of outward journeys, Abeona plays a vital logistical role, enabling Koru to remain sleek and streamlined.
