Staff Editor Luxury Superyacht LAUNCHPAD Enters San Diego Bay, Owned by Tech Billionaire
A striking 387-foot superyacht named LAUNCHPAD made a grand entrance into San Diego Bay on Thursday morning, captivating onlookers and sparking curiosity about its high-profile owner. The San Diego Web Cam livestream captured the vessel’s arrival around 9 a.m., showcasing its impressive size and sleek design.
LAUNCHPAD, classified as a “pleasure craft” by Marine Traffic, boasts a fascinating history. Initially commissioned by Russian oligarch Vladimir Potanin, the yacht changed hands due to international sanctions. It was subsequently sold to an American owner for approximately $300 million, according to Yacht World.
The luxurious vessel features an array of amenities fit for the ultra-wealthy, including a tennis court, helicopter deck, private cinema, gym, and deck jacuzzi. With accommodations for up to 24 guests, LAUNCHPAD represents the pinnacle of maritime luxury.
It has now been revealed that the current owner of this floating palace is none other than Mark Zuckerberg, the creator of Facebook and CEO of Meta. Zuckerberg, who holds the title of richest man in California and ranks fourth on Forbes’ World’s Billionaires List, has added this extraordinary yacht to his portfolio of assets.
The reason for Zuckerberg’s visit to San Diego remains unknown, leaving local residents and media speculating about the tech mogul’s intentions. As the LAUNCHPAD graces the waters of San Diego Bay, there’s a possibility that lucky observers might catch a glimpse of the billionaire himself during his stay in the area.
