Jeff Bezos Reportedly Considering Sale of $500 Million Superyacht Koru

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is reportedly considering selling his 417-foot luxury sailing yacht Koru, valued at around $500 million, due to its size and high maintenance costs. The yacht, one of the world's largest sailing vessels, features multiple decks, a glass-bottom pool, jacuzzis, and accommodates 18 guests with a crew of 36. Its growing public visibility has also affected Bezos' privacy. The yacht is accompanied by a $75 million support vessel, though its sale status is unclear.
