A source tells Page Six that Jeff Bezos is quietly shopping his $500 million floating palace, Koru — because it’s just too huge to manage.
In 2025, the boat was denied a mooring in Monaco during the grand prix due to its size.
The yacht was also unable to get anywhere near the lagoon during Bezos and Sánchez’s summer wedding in Venice last summer.
In 2023, the New York Times reported that Koru was too large to dock in the Florida [Port] Everglades, instead hanging out around far less glamorous oil tankers and container ships. [Slide 1, 2.]
People meanwhile has other rumors denying he’s selling it. Regardless of the yacht, it’s clear he had buyer’s remorse at the Gala; he did not appear on the red carpet. The backlash against him is why he suddenly started talking like a socialist in his recent interview. He tried to talk about taxing the rich, while being scared to say the words. The pressure is working.
From Vogue, via AD it isn't a representation of his wife on the front of the boat:
In fact, the figurehead is one of Bezos's favorite mythological figures, Freyja, Norse goddess of love, fertility, war, and gold.
Perfect for Bezos in his Trump era.
The great book on inequality The Haves and Have Yachts says much of the appeal of having a bigger yacht is docking it in a marina where the owner can flex on smaller yachts. There’s VIP berths that allow a side view, which take up more space and are limited. Sounds like the Bezos are missing out on this.
Wikipedia says even the ’support yacht' is big: 75-metres (246 ft).
If he sells, DiCaprio should take credit. /s

Honestly a really cool looking boat imo, but who needs to be sailing around in a private man-o-war in the year 2026 lol
$500 million for a yacht is crazy
He’s up to something!
You know you have too much money when your yacht has an emotional support yacht…
Like who tf needs that….
And taxing him more won’t do anything for that teacher in queens…ffs
Well…I’m not buying it, that’s for sure.
Dock it in the US and turn it into a free hospital.
A lot of billionaires might start trying to be more low key and relatable to us peasants as they see the tide turn. Unless they give it up though, should be public enemy number one
On a slightly different note, anyone else think he’s had some work done to his face? It’s not bad work at all, but he looks a little different. Might just be the tan and the white hair, but his face looks fuller also.
Shouldn’t even fucking exist lmaoooo 250 million yacht is insane
Why wouldn’t he have a submarine or hovercraft, and go full kid fantasy?
“FU money” must be nice, but people probably shouldn’t be allowed to gather “F humanity” money
who the fuck would even want to buy it? a dubai sheikh i guess
This is so obscene but must be amazing that people have money to fund projects like this if you’re an artisan. I’m sure a lot of people fulfilled lifelong dreams building these boats
As all boats are described as holes you pour money into, who can afford a $500 million boat and the smaller emotional support boat?
Eat. The. Rich.
