The superyacht was constructed by Oceanco and has now completed her first maiden voyage, sailing from the Netherlands to Gibraltar after finishing sea trials in the North Sea in February 2023. Currently, the vessel is docked in an anchorage in the bay of Palma on the Balearic island of Mallorca. Koru is a remarkable sailing yacht with a steel hull, aluminum superstructure, and three towering masts measuring over 230 feet, making it the tallest sailing yacht in the world. This surpasses the 357-foot Cox & Stevens sailing vessel, Sea Cloud, built in Germany in 1931, which is still used today as a luxury charter yacht and cruise ship. Koru also eclipsed Black Pearl in overall length, pushing it from third place to fourth place on the list of the world’s largest sailing yachts. The yacht's name, Koru, which means "new beginnings" in Maori, is fitting as it features a glossy black hull, white superstructure, a capacious pool located on the aft deck, and several plush outdoor lounges for guests to relax in. The yacht is not only one of the most expensive private boats ever built and purchased, but also one of the largest private yachts on the planet and the biggest ever to be built in The Netherlands. The price of the yacht is a staggering $485 million, which is a significant amount even for Mr. Bezos, who is known for his enormous wealth.
