1 day agoIs St Barths Poised To Surpass Europe's Luxury Yacht Circuit?
Over New Year's Eve, St Barths hosted the largest-ever gathering of 100-metre-plus superyachts ever recorded at a single event - 13 in total - surpassing even Monaco, and had hundreds of vessels lining the island's iconic harbors. Jeff Bezos' $500 million Koru, WhatsApp founder Jan Koum's 100.75 metre Feadship named Moonrise, and Google co-founder Sergey Brin's Lürssen flagship were parked in the vicinity, with US tech billionaires contributing greatly to the unprecedented concentration of megayachts in the Caribbean's waters.
