Please explain to me the rationale behind spending 120-240million dollars for a ship that is severely limited in the ports it can enter and whose upkeep will be additional millions of dollars every year ?

I was merely insinuating that Zuckerberg is short dicked.

The biggest rationale for the ship is prestige and bragging rights.

The other involves rich people economics. Zuckerberg is worth 230 billion. A $250 million yacht is roughly 0.10% of his net worth - that is the equivalent of a family making $50k purchasing a fictional used car for $50.00.

Other fun facts:

A yacht of this size usually depreciates between 5-10% annually until it reaches 50% depreciation - then it is only 1-2% for the remainder of the ship's life.

Maintenance and use costs would be around $12.5 - 25 million per year.

A lease for this ship would be between 500k - 1million per week.

I just couldn't stand to be so limited in where I could actually go with such a tub.

Seems self defeating.

What is the old saying… the only thing better than owning boat is having a friend who owns a boat.

The paradox of boat ownership is that the larger your boat is, the more comfortable you will be while simultaneously restricting the places you can go.

There are a lot of really nice nooks and crannies on earth that a 30 footer could get to that a 287 foot one could not.

35-45 is the sweet spot.

A 287' yacht has a tender boat on board for those excursions. There are lots of places you're not coming near a dock with a ship that size.

We have a friend in Miami with a fairly sizable yacht. He has a 68' Viking and a 43' Midnight Express as well. The dock/slip fees for his 68' are around $13,000/mo. Every time we take it out the fuel bill is a couple thousand dollars.

The bigger expense of a 287' is a full time captain, paying a channel captain to bring it to port, a full time crew, chef, mechanic and on and on and on.

There's a 0% chance Zuck ever gets to drive that boat more than a couple miles in the middle of the ocean with someone watching him like a 2yr old.

Going to Key West this Thursday for a week of fishing.

Will be happy to take your friends 287 out for a spin.

No charge for my time !

Oh he's got a nice boat but it's not a 287'. Like an 87' give or take. Plenty big enough for a real serious party though.

There are a lot of interesting places a 287 footer can't get within reasonable tender range of. Most yachts, even small ones, travel with tenders.

Personally, I don't want to see a dong in the women's locker-room either. That certainly would have killed the Porky's franchise.

Or God forbid Booger exclaiming We Have Dong! in Revenge of the Nerds.
