Flying Fox: a 400-million dollars yacht that belongs (not) to Jeff Bezos

Some time ago, a rumor hit the media saying that the founder of Amazon and one of the richest people in the world, owns the hyper-luxury yacht “Flying Fox”, which is worth USD 400 million. Oh yeah… but no. The Flying Fox is indeed worth what I wrote, but it is not owned by Jeff Bezos. It is managed by the Imperial Yacht company, which charter such wonders to people with sufficiently thick wallets (renting this yacht for a week will cost you around USD 4 million). Today I invite you for a quick tour of the “Flying Fox”.

“Flying Fox” flies fast and in style

A cinema, a 13-meter swimming pool, 2 heliports – designed by Espen Oeino and built in 2019 by the Lurssen shipyard, the yacht screams luxury. Its annual maintenance costs about USD 15 million. It’s enough to mention that the “Flying Fox” captain earns around USD 450,000 a year, and the main mechanic as much as USD 150,000 a year. Most of the crew are former British Armed Forces.
