You can own part of this 279-foot-long superyacht for $3.2 million and stay on it whenever you want — see inside

• Superyacht Holdings is giving millionaires the chance to cohabitate the $117 million Victorious superyacht .
• The minimum one-time co-ownership payment is $3.2 million plus an annual over $321,000.
• With plans to launch in the summer of 2024, the startup is waiting to acquire the 279-foot-long vessel.

Calling all millionaires and billionaires: You no longer have to drop over $100 million to own a luxurious superyacht . Try a very affordable $3 million instead.

Superyacht Holdings is taking a (relatively) democratized approach to superyacht ownership with its first target acquisition, the €110 million — about $117 million — Victorious. Instead of asking one billionaire to independently pay for and own this 279-foot-long vessel, wealthy travelers can cough up €3 million, about $3.2 million, to co-own and cohabitate the Victorious for several weeks a year with other millionaires.

According to the startup's itinerary, the superyacht would spend its summers in the Mediterranean and winters in the Caribbean, turning this lavish vessel into a floating hotel or part-time condo building. Like a HOA fee , buyers would also have to pay an annual €300,000 — over $321,000 — to cover costs like gratuities, fuel, and food. (For context, the 279-foot-long Victorious can currently be chartered for $950,000 a week in the winter.)

"When billionaires get on yachts of this magnitude, their jaws still drop at the luxury," Thomas Locastro, Superyacht Holdings' cofounder and co-CEO, told Insider

Built in 2021 by Turkey-based Akyacht, Victorious has 12 staterooms, six bars, and five formal (seven informal) dining spaces.

Buyers can book whichever staterooms at whatever times of the year they'd like, pending restrictions based on how much they're willing to pay. This means there's a good chance several of these wealthy travelers would be on the yacht at the same time, like a very exclusive cruise .

At most, there could be 24 guests and 30 crew onboard. During big events like the Monaco Grand Prix or New Year's Eve, the vessel could be at full capacity. But on average, the startup is predicting an owner-occupancy rate of 62.5%.

"There's so few yachts in the world that would work for a program," Matthew Locastro, cofounder and co-CEO, said, noting the Victorious' size and number of staterooms.

The vessel has a walk-in wine cellar, two hot tubs, an indoor pool, a piano lounge, and a movie theater.

A helicopter pad can be used to shuttle travelers to and from the floating hotel. And let's not forget the onboard 2,150-square-foot "beach club" with a heated pool. This is also where the steam room, massage room, gym, salon, and water toys like jet skis are located.

And because the ship is currently in operation, Superyacht Holdings won't have to do any refitting work. "We want it to be ready to go on day one," Matthew said.

To the few who have ever considered buying a superyacht, this could be a great deal

For all of these amenities and a guaranteed few weeks on the vessel, travelers only have to cough up less than 3% of the Victorious' price. While still unattainable to the general public, this opens the pool of buyers from billionaires to multi-millionaires.

The startup's president, James St. John, was previously the president and CEO of luxury residential cruise ship The World where accommodations now resell between $2 million and $15 million. This vessel is the only condominium-at-sea concept in service and is exclusive to buyers who have a net worth of at least $10 million.

However, having previously worked in the entertainment and financial advisory industries, the cofounding and co-CEO Locastro brothers have no experience running a yacht or cruise company.

Superyacht Holdings hasn't acquired its vessel yet, but this isn't uncommon for ship startups

When Superyacht Holdings hits its target threshold of reserved "units," the company will plan to move forward with the Victorious' acquisition under a "co-ownership LLC," according to the brothers. That's when all of the buyers' $3.2 million-per-unit payments would go into a common escrow account.

Buyers' ownership of the ship is divided into 60 units. One unit entitles a buyer to a certain amount of usage of the yacht, an annual average of between three weeks in the nicest suite to seven weeks in the least luxurious twin stateroom.

Nine of the units have been reserved, Matthew told Insider in an email on November 6. One of the buyers, Justin Thorton, signed a memorandum of understanding to purchase two, entitling him to double the normal usage.

Less than a year away from its target launch of summer 2024, the brothers seem confident in this acquisition. In the meantime, future buyers' $100,000 deposits — to be held in a personal escrow account until the company closes on the Victorious — are refundable.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, P Diddy and Bernie Ecclestone have all moored their luxury yachts off the coast of St. Barts as the annual bacchanal of celebrities parading their wealth on vacation sets in.

The billionaire's parking lot off the coast of the Caribbean island, known for its white sand beaches and designer shopping, was looking a little less crowded this year without the traditional Russian oligarch superyachts, but still saw a healthy list of notable guests.

Pictures from the Caribbean paradise showed Ecclestone in his yacht 'Force Blue,' Diddy in his vessel Victorious and Galaxy housing Dave Hagewood sitting nearby one another.

Meanwhile, snaps from the sunny coastline saw Ernesto Bertarelli in his yacht Vava, Rising Sun the seaworthy vacation home of David Geffen and Jones in the Bravo Eugenia, named after his wife.

Jones made news with the yacht when he made the NFL draft picks for the Cowboys on board the vessel back in 2020. The yacht is named in honor of his wife Eugenia Jones. 

The team owner spent an estimated $225 million to $250 million and there's a yearly upkeep cost of about $15 million to $20 million, according to Boatsafe .

The vessel uses a unique green design that makes it more fuel efficient and environmentally friendly and its top speed is around 18 knots. 

The superyacht has a helipad for bringing guests on board, seven cabins capable of accommodating 14 guests for overnight stays, four decks worth of space and accommodates 30 crew members and quarters to house them.

Galaxy: Video game developer Dave Hagewood

Dave Hagewood is the proud owner of the 'burning man inspired' ultra-luxe superyacht Galaxy which stands at 184 foot tall. 

In an interview with Forbes , Hagewood said he wanted something that was unique and to his taste. 

'I was just magnetized to this,' says Hagewood when he talks about first stepping aboard. 

'We vibed with it even though it was an older boat with a dated interior because we're good at imagining what could be changed.

Unique design features include the master suite that has a music studio and unique snuggle space in their private apartment in the bow. 

The cosmic-inspired accents include the illuminated headboard with their own star signs and an upper saloon which features one-of-a-kind artwork by Hannah Camille, and a space for playing the piano and dining.

According to Forbes , the superyacht showdown started early this year, with several high-profile billionaires anchored just outside of Gustavia and neighboring St. Maarten, and Antigua

In April, the FBI and Spanish authorities seized mega yacht Monday owned by oligarch and Putin friend Viktor Vekselberg – amid calls for even tighter sanctions on Russia following new discoveries of atrocities outside Kyiv.

The 254-foot vessel was docked in Palma de Mallorca, the capital of Spain's Balearic Islands and a playground and tax haven for the wealthy.

The seizure was a joint operation including FBI and Homeland Security Investigations as well as Spain's Civil Guard carried out at the request of U.S. authorities.

The seizure was the the first in the U.S. government's sanctions initiative to 'seize and freeze' giant vessels and other pricey assets of Russian elites in an effort to turn up pressure on Putin in response to the invasion.

It came hours after new horrors emerged from the suburb of Bucha outside Kyiv, Ukrainian forces who pushed back Russian invaders discovered bodies of Ukrainian citizens shot dead in the street, some with their hands tied behind their backs.

A rare look inside Diddy’s $65 million superyacht

From a newspaper vendor at the age of 12, Sean “Diddy” Combs has built a successful business empire in addition to his music career. The business mogul has a net worth of nearly $1 billion and his fortune comes from stakes in businesses such as Ciroc Vodka, Sean John clothing line, DeLeon tequila, Aquahydrate water, and sponsorships deals.

Aside from his businesses, Diddy is accustomed to the high life and he has a superyacht to match his status as a musician, artiste manager and business investor. The business mogul owns a $65 million superyacht he bought in 2012.

According to autoevolution , Diddy has been sailing in Europe, like other celebrities and multimillionaires. The difference here is that Diddy travels using his own yacht, Maraya, which means “many mirrors” in Arabic or “admired” based on its Spanish origin.

Maraya was built and delivered in 2008 by CRN Ancona, a Ferretti Group subsidiary. The yacht is 54.2-meter (177.8-foot) and has interiors by Claude Missir and Zuccon. Also, the yacht is a five-decker that offers ample exterior space and lavish interiors.

According to autoevolution , the superyacht’s hull is steel and the superstructure aluminum. It has a sparkling white with a clean silhouette exterior; the interiors are more masculine, with heavy woods and real leather accents.

The yacht has accommodation for 12 people over eight rooms, including a master suite, five VIP staterooms, three twin cabins and one Pullman bed. It can carry up to 17 crew members onboard to ensure a truly relaxing experience, according to Daily Mail.

The yacht also has other luxurious amenities like a jacuzzi on the sundeck, a fully-equipped gym and wellness area, and vast lounge areas. The yacht also has a nightclub-like area with a bar, a screening room, formal and informal dining rooms, and a chef’s kitchen.

The Maraya, powered by twin Caterpillar engines, can reach maximum speeds of 16.5 knots and travel leisurely at 14.5 knots, according to autoevolution .

Diddy was raised by his grandmother following the killing of his dad when he was only two years old. He graduated from the Roman Catholic Mouth Saint Michael Academy in 1987 and proceeded to Howard University as a business major, but left after his sophomore year, according to Celebrity Net Worth.

He is credited with nurturing talents such as Jodeci and Mary J. Blige besides Notorious BIG, Carl Thomas, Faith Evans, 112, Total, and Father MC.

St. Barths is the perfect place to celebrate Christmas and New Year’s Eve. From the beautiful beaches to the mouth-watering cuisine to the fun of celebrity sightings – this island has something for everyone. As a local resident, I want to share my insider tips on how to enjoy St. Barths while keeping it respectful and low-key. In this blog post, I’ve selected some of the best videos from 2022/2023 that capture what it was like: from breathtaking sunsets to glamorous parties and everything in between. So get ready for an amazing journey through time as you experience St Barths through my eyes.

St  Barths 2022 to 2023 New Year’s Eve party (free event on the port)

A nice video showing what it’s like to party with your friends in St Barths is a must-see. The video takes you on a journey, starting at the port, where you can see the fireworks and pass by the beautiful yachts, followed by a visit to la Capitainerie (the square next to the port authority) for the free public celebration. New Year’s Eve 2022 saw French DJ Bob Sinclar taking control of the decks for an unforgettable night!

New Year’s Eve 2023 Yacht and Super-yacht watch (No Russian yachts this year)

What would be a report about St Barths on New Year’s Eve without some breathtaking sights? This year, the stunning Russian yachts from the likes of billionaire Abramovitich were absent (his St Barths property has reportedly been seized). The first video provides beautiful aerial views of the yachts gathered near the port of Gustavia and in front of the public area. 

The second video reveals even more yachts and superyachts, such as:

• P. Diddy and family on their luxurious yacht, Victorious
• David Geffen sailing on his dazzling Rising Sun yacht
• Bernie Ecclestone aboard Force Blue
• Dave Hagewood on Galaxy
• Ernesto Bertarelli gliding Vava
• Jerry Jones on Bravo Eugenia

A “normal” December 24 in St Barths with friends, hikes, caviar, and glimpses of cool places

I like this video because it takes us to the vibrant streets of St Barths on December 24. Vlogger Maria Teresa Lopez shares good impressions of island life, like shopping for stunning swimsuits, dropping by a Rosewood Guanahani and Nikki Beach to soak up the views, having dinner at Shelona, buying produce from the local supermarket, and visiting Bar de l’Oubli for high-speed internet access. Plus, there’s always that minor detail when you’re out in public: getting your hair just right. Luckily, you can book hairdressers to come on board your yacht or villa—for just $200 a pop (or DIY)!

The party to attend: LuisaViaRoma x UNICEF on December 29, 2022

The luxurious fashion retailer LuisaViaRoma, based in Florence, Italy, hosted the second edition of their annual UNICEF gala at Emeraude St Barth. The night was filled with a cocktail reception, gala dinner, and a live auction of exclusive items, artwork, and experiences conducted by Simon de Pury. To make the night even more special, world-renowned artists Lenny Kravitz and DRAKE performed for the guests to benefit UNICEF’s efforts to provide care and protection to vulnerable children around the globe. Last year’s edition of the UNICEF gala took place at the Eden Rock Hotel and featured performances by Grammy award-winning artist Dua Lipa.

Celebrity sighting: P.Diddy and his entourage in Gustavia and on their yacht

On Saturday, December 24th, 2022, Sean “P. Diddy” Combs was spotted filming one of the first installments of a new reality show in the streets of Gustavia.  P. Diddy was accompanied by his entourage and production crew, who did some last-minute shopping before heading back to his yacht!

I remember when the Kardashians came to film their own reality show on our island – it always makes me wonder whether I will be in any of those scenes as an unwitting background person.

Another video of P. Diddy in his entourage, on and off their yachts in Barths:

My hope is that through this report, readers can gain an appreciation of what it’s like to experience the holidays in St. Barths; a few weeks every year that are always incredibly special, unique and star-studded!

In April, the FBI and Spanish authorities seized mega yacht Monday owned by oligarch and Putin friend Viktor Vekselberg – amid calls for even tighter sanctions on Russia following new discoveries of atrocities outside Kyiv.

The 254-foot vessel was docked in Palma de Mallorca, the capital of Spain’s Balearic Islands and a playground and tax haven for the wealthy.

The seizure was a joint operation including FBI and Homeland Security Investigations as well as Spain’s Civil Guard carried out at the request of U.S. authorities.

The seizure was the the first in the U.S. government’s sanctions initiative to ‘seize and freeze’ giant vessels and other pricey assets of Russian elites in an effort to turn up pressure on Putin in response to the invasion.

It came hours after new horrors emerged from the suburb of Bucha outside Kyiv, Ukrainian forces who pushed back Russian invaders discovered bodies of Ukrainian citizens shot dead in the street, some with their hands tied behind their backs.

Dan Schneider says ‘Quiet on Set’ allegations made him feel ‘awful and regretful’

Former Nickelodeon producer Dan Schneider said he would have taken a different approach to his hit shows, after watching his TV empire face scrutiny in the docuseries “Quiet on Set.”

“Watching over the past two nights was very difficult,” he said in a video response published Tuesday , “me facing my past behaviors — some of which are embarrassing and that I regret — and I definitely owe some people a pretty strong apology.”

In a nearly 20-minute conversation published by his production company, Schneider told “iCarly” actor BooG!e that he apologized for the discomfort employees — including actors and writers — say they felt while working his shows. In “Quiet on Set,” former cast members alleged that Schneider often tested boundaries by including off-color jokes and provocative gags in his series, which starred and were aimed at children.

He also condemned his aggressive past behavior on-set, acknowledging that he would often snap at people and “not give people time” as he faced the pressure of overseeing multiple productions.

“There were so many times I wanted to pick up a phone and call people and say, ‘I’m so sorry and let’s talk about it,’” he said.

The sentiments in Schneider’s response video echoed those expressed in a statement issued Monday.

A day after Investigation Discovery premiered its bombshell documentary on Sunday, a spokesperson for Schneider seemingly downplayed the accusations, writing, “In the challenges of production, Dan could get frustrated at times, and he understands why some employees found that intimidating and stressful.”

The statement described Schneider’s decades-long career in television. The statement also noted that the producer acknowledged that some people did not have a positive experience, and he is “truly sorry for that.”

‘Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV’: 6 key takeaways from the documentary

‘Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV,’ the ID documentary series premiering Sunday, delves into Dan Schneider’s hit Nickelodeon shows and the abuse former employees say happened.

March 13, 2024

“Dan knows he should have done better and feels awful about anyone who saw him at his worst, instead of his best,” the statement said.

“Quiet on Set” sought to shed light on allegations of sexual abuse and discrimination that young stars and staffers allegedly experienced during the producer’s Nickelodeon reign. In the docuseries, several former child actors (including Drake Bell), parents and crew members offer their accounts of Schneider’s alleged abuse of power.

Schneider also produced numerous Nickelodeon hits, including “Drake & Josh,” “Victorious,” “Zoey 101” and “All That.”

Drake Bell accuses former Nickelodeon dialogue coach Brian Peck of sexual abuse

‘Drake & Josh’ star Drake Bell will break his silence about the alleged abuse he suffered at the hands of Nickelodeon dialogue coach Brian Peck in a new documentary.

March 6, 2024

Over the years, former Nickelodeon stars spoke out against the alleged abuse they faced from Schneider and other Nickelodeon bosses. Jennette McCurdy alleged in her 2022 memoir that the network offered her a paycheck to keep quiet about unsettling experiences from when she starred in “iCarly.” “Zoey 101” actor Alexa Nikolas led a 2022 protest outside Nickelodeon’s Burbank studio, alleging that she and her fellow actors “were not safe.”

In “Quiet on Set,” Bell detailed the alleged sexual abuse that he experienced from dialogue coach Brian Peck, who worked on Schneider-created shows including “All That” and “The Amanda Show.” Peck was convicted in 2004 of child sex abuse.

In Tuesday’s video, Schneider denied claims that he hired Peck and teared up as he recalled helping Bell’s mother pen her speech for her testimony against him.

“That was probably the darkest part of my career,” he said.

Schneider’s video dispelled allegedly “false rumors” that he was banned from his Nickelodeon sets, discussed the producer’s close relationship with former child star Amanda Bynes and provided an explanation for the alleged pay disparity two writers said they experienced.

Repeating points from his Monday missive, Schneider underlined in his video that material from his shows — including stories, dialogue and costumes — was approved by network executives on two coasts.

New allegations against producer Dan Schneider include hyper-sexual practices at Nickelodeon

A new report says that Nickelodeon showrunner Dan Schneider allegedly “created an uncomfortable, bizarre environment that he ruled over like a fiefdom.”

Aug. 31, 2022

“In addition, every day on every set, there were always parents and caregivers and their friends watching filming and rehearsals,” the Monday statement said. “Had there been any scenes or outfits that were inappropriate in any way, they would have been flagged and blocked by this multilayered scrutiny.”

Despite all the layers of approval, Schneider said he still would have taken a different approach to his shows if given a chance. In addition to adding therapists to counsel young talent on-set, he said, “The main thing I would change is how I would treat people and everyone.”

He concluded his video: “When I watched the [docuseries], I could see the hurt in some people’s eyes and it made me feel awful, and regretful and sorry. I wish I could go back especially to those earlier years in my career and bring growth and the experience that I have now and just do a better job.”

Amid the buzz surrounding “Quiet on Set,” former Nickelodeon boss Russell Hicks also voiced support for Schneider. Hicks departed Nickelodeon in 2016 after 18 years at the company. During his tenure, he oversaw the network’s live-action and animation development and production for its various platforms including Nickelodeon, TeenNick and Nick Jr.

Hicks, in a statement shared Monday with The Times, said Schneider “cared about the kids on his shows even when sometimes their own families unfortunately did not.” He also touted executive supervision over programming and the presence of talent’s parents and caregivers on set.

“Every single thing that Dan ever did on any of his shows was carefully scrutinized and approved by executives at Nickelodeon,” Hicks added.
