levantades yacht

Marzo 1967, disegno N° 1885, dalla matita dello studio di S&S a New York nasce il Levantades, sloop di 50’. La costruzione della barca, su precise indicazioni dell’armatore Giuseppe Diano, già armatore di un altro Levantades di S&S e del progettista Olin Stephens, viene affidata questa volta al famoso cantiere Carlini di Rimini, specializzato nella costruzione di barche in legno da regata, perfette e leggerissime, tra le altre vanno ricordate il Tarantella, Il Moro di Venezia, Alnair III e Kerkira.

See Mark Zuckerberg’s glossy new $300M, 287-foot superyacht ‘Launchpad’

All aboard S.S. Facebook.

Mark Zuckerberg has reportedly gifted himself a $300 million megayacht, dubbed “Launchpad,” ahead of his 40th birthday.

The staggering 387-foot-long vessel was seen floating at Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., after arriving at its berth earlier this week, The Sun reported Thursday.

The multi-layered luxury ship’s sleek exterior was designed by Espen Øino International and boasts a steel hull and an aluminum superstructure, according to SuperYacht Times.

Reportedly ranking as the 45th largest yacht in the world, the interiors are just as aesthetically pleasing and reportedly executed by Zuretti Interior Design company, a France-based company specializing in unique and custom yacht design.

The breathtakingly beautiful floater stands out with a navy blue theme matching an American flag perched proudly on its wood-paneled stern.

There are several outdoor areas where the social media maven will be able to relax with his family and the indoor levels feature glass paneling allowing for tons of natural light.

There also appears to be a helipad perfect for whenever the Facebook co-founder wants to travel to his vessel by air.

The Feadship-built yacht, built in 2022, can comfortably fit 24 guests aboard, requires a crew of 48, and is said to cost $30 million a year for upkeep and usage, according to Superyachtfan.com .

Boatworld insiders have been buzzing with speculation that Zuckerberg is the owner of the newly minted mega-cruise ever since it made its main voyage from the Netherlands last week.

The tech titan was spotted touring the Russian-commissioned megayacht in early March, though the impressive boat didn’t arrive stateside until this week due to sanctions, according to The Sun.

The website reported that Zuckerberg purchased the pricey yacht – along with its own $30 million partner boat — most likely as an early 40th birthday present to himself.

The boat reportedly traveled to Florida after being granted special permission to be imported just weeks ahead of Zuckerberg’s birthday on May 14.

Zuckerberg’s yacht is just 30 feet shorter than the length of fellow billionaire Jeff Bezos’ 417-foot megayacht Koru, which the Amazon boss snagged for a whopping $500 million.

Zuckerberg’s rep did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.

Meet the fast-selling 37m superyacht designed for ‘real life’

Stealing the show has become something of a habit for Ocean Alexander , and so it proved again at Fort Lauderdale last October.

During the show, the high-profile boatbuilder debuted three brand-new models and expanded its range of top-selling 25 to 37-metre yachts. One of these was the meticulously crafted 35.9-metre flagship, Ocean Alexander 37L. The first unit of the new 37L is already with her owner, and hull number two is in the pipeline. Demand for Ocean Alexander yachts is at an all-time high, securing the company’s position as one of the leading brands for large yachts in the US.

To launch an Ocean Alexander with a worthy Legend flagship status, the family-owned business worked to perfect its semi-custom platform. To do so, the builder advanced its slightly smaller 36L model by taking its long-established alliance with Evan K. Marshall to unprecedented levels. The result is a yacht that caters to a private, luxurious and entertaining life at sea.

Having established the yacht’s low-profile lines, the team “imagined brilliant ways to utilise space, create innovative privacy solutions and provide functional living spaces for the most discerning owners and their guests,” says Sally Doleski, Ocean Alexander’s Vice President of Marketing. The open-plan interior layout features rich materials and elegant decor with surprising details engineered throughout, such as floor-to-ceiling glass panelling, silent electric doors and automatic window blinds. “The design perfectly combines features that are both cutting-edge and timeless,” Doleski adds.

The four decks have been designed to reflect how owners and their guests like to use a yacht. Entering the main saloon is a seamless experience through powered doors that glide open at the touch of a button, inviting guests into an airy, light-filled space for entertaining and relaxing. The contemporary furniture comes with some clever design hacks: the flat-screen television floats down from the ceiling, and the custom cabinetry made from exotic wood offers plenty of storage space.

In keeping with the interior’s open-plan layout, the dining table for 10 is flanked by large sliding glass doors that connect all elements of the wraparound main deck. Continuing forward, a spacious high-grade galley is fitted with stone counters and floors, a wine cooler and ample provisions storage for long journeys. Dubbed “the chef’s space”, it is more than twice the size of a comparable yacht to fit in the stainless-steel appliances required for a professional cook. The team agreed that having full-size equipment such as American Sub-Zero refrigerators are the best amenities for provisions, long journeys and special occasions that require professional-standard catering.

As designer Evan K. Marshall puts it, the yacht has been given a “true penthouse apartment feel”, and so completing the main deck is the master suite. Encased in forward-facing large windows, the suite has motorised shades for privacy at the push of a button. On the lower deck, the staterooms have the flexibility for two of the rooms to be joined together to create one large room for four.

Thanks to the optimisation of the space on the lower deck, there is room for extra utilities such as a double washer/dryer, ironing board, and a set of freezers to enhance the yacht’s appeal as a floating hotel made to suit ‘real living’.

Even more utilities can be found on the upper aft deck. A sink, refrigerator, icemaker and stainless-steel electric grill promotes the space into a five-star luxury hangout for both day and night, particularly as the sky deck’s oversized Jacuzzi is just a few steps away. To be closer to the ocean, guests will find that the foldout deck transforms the aft beach club into a personal oasis and houses a bar, television, comfortable seating, air conditioning and sound system.

On the engineering side, every Ocean Alexander yacht is fitted with an OctoPlex system to control all of the AC and DC loads and is one of the most sophisticated systems on the market. When the yacht is in use the noisier parts of the boat – such as the galley and engine room – have been taken care of. Ocean Alexander sought the expertise of Gregory Marshall and the yard’s in-house naval architect experts and interior designer Evan K. Marshall to engineer solutions to keep the yacht running silently, so all that can be heard is the surrounding ocean. Plus, the engine room is not only modelled to be beautiful, accessible and functional, but is served by an extra-safe air intake system that can withstand any sea condition.

These are just some of the underlying design features that are making the Ocean Alexander 37L such a tempting proposition for yacht buyers. For those who prefer to see it for themselves, arrangements can be made to visit the yacht in Florida from April 2022 by contacting Ocean Alexander directly here.

Investigation found that Clarence Thomas took free yacht, helicopter trips in Russia: Democrats

A Senate Judiciary Committee investigation found that conservative Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas failed to disclose at least 35 luxury gifts, including a free yacht trip to Russia and a private helicopter to a palace in St. Petersburg, Vladimir Putin's hometown, Sens. Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., and Ron Wyden, D-Or., said  in a letter  to Attorney General Merrick Garland.

The letter raised the "serious possibility of tax fraud" and accused Thomas of having "secretly accepted gifts and income potentially worth millions of dollars," mostly from billionaire real estate developer Harlan Crow, who Thomas once described as being among his "dearest friends." Buried in appendix list on page 14 are the references to the Russia trips, which took place in 2003. Other gifts from Crow include "multiple instances of free private jet travel, yacht travel, and lodging," "gifts of tuition for Justice Thomas's grandnephew," "real estate transactions," "home renovations," and "free rent for Justice Thomas's mother."

“The Senate is not a prosecutorial body, and the Supreme Court has no fact-finding function of its own, making the executive role all the more important if there is ever to be any complete determination of the facts,” the letter reads.

After a bombshell ProPublica report last year that revealed the extent of Thomas' financial ties with Crow and attempts to hide it, Thomas admitted to taking three trips on a private plane owned by Crow, but did not disclose any of the other gifts.

The senators are asking Garland to launch a special counsel investigation into Thomas, with the evidence collected so far "plainly suggest[ing] that Justice Thomas has committed numerous willful violations of federal ethics and false-statement laws and raises significant questions about whether he and his wealthy benefactors have complied with their federal tax obligations."

In a separate move on Wednesday, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and a group of fellow progressives filed articles of impeachment against Thomas and Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito for failing to disclose "millions of dollars in gifts from individuals with business before the court."

Clarence Thomas Took Free Yacht Trip to Russia, Chopper Flight to Putin’s Hometown: Dems

The allegedly secret gifts were disclosed in a letter from two Democratic senators that accused Thomas of potentially committing tax fraud.

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas has been accused of not disclosing a yacht trip to Russia and a private helicopter flight to a palace in President Vladimir Putin’s hometown, among a slew of other gifts and loans from businessman Harlan Crow .

Buried on page 14 of a letter that two Democratic senators sent to Attorney General Merrick Garland on Tuesday, in which they urged Garland to appoint a special counsel to probe Thomas, was an astonishing list of dozens of “likely undisclosed gifts and income” from Crow, Crow’s affiliated companies, and “other donors.”

In the letter, Sens. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) and Ron Wyden (D-OR) said Thomas, one of the court’s staunchly conservative justices , even may have committed tax fraud and violated other federal laws by “secretly” accepting the gifts and income potentially worth millions.

“The Senate is not a prosecutorial body, and the Supreme Court has no fact-finding function of its own, making the executive role all the more important if there is ever to be any complete determination of the facts,” reads the letter requesting the appointment of a special prosecutor. 

“We do not make this request lightly,” said the letter. 

The list of potentially secret gifts also includes a loan of more than $267,000 provided by Thomas’ close friend Anthony Welters, the yacht trip to Russia from the Baltics, and the helicopter ride to Yusupov Palace in St. Petersburg. ProPublica first reported last year on the existence of extensive undisclosed gifts and lavish trips from Crow.

Additionally, Justice Thomas is accused of not disclosing tuitions for his grandnephew, free lodging, real estate transactions, and home renovations. The action escalates Democratic senators’ efforts to hold Thomas accountable for perceived ethics controversies. 

According to the senators, Thomas’ conduct could violate the Ethics in Government Act, which requires officials like Supreme Court justices to file annual reports disclosing gifts and income accepted from outside sources.

“It is a crime,” reads the report, “To knowingly and willfully fail to file or report such information.”

Since 2023, two Senate committees have been looking into the 1991 loan from Welters that was connected to Thomas’ purchase of a luxury motor home. Welters previously responded to a New York Times request for comment on the loan only to say that it was “satisfied.”

Thomas, for his part, belatedly disclosed some—but not all—gifts from Crow this year and has defended the gifts as “personal hospitality” from some of his and his wife’s “dearest friends.”

“The evidence assembled thus far plainly suggests that Justice Thomas has committed numerous willful violations of federal ethics and false-statement laws and raises significant questions about whether he and his wealthy benefactors have,” Whitehouse and Wyden wrote.
