The colossal 287-foot vessel, manufactured by renowned Dutch yacht builder Feadship, embarked on its journey from the Netherlands on February 29, reported ZeroHedge.

Equipped with 4 MTU engines, the “Launchpad” operates as a large-displacement diesel vessel, according to SuperYacht Times. Climate Change Advocacy Under Scrutiny: SuperYacht Times reports that the yacht operates with “4 MTU engines, enabling a top speed of 24 knots.” This indicates that the vessel is propelled by large-displacement diesel engines, presenting a contradiction for the billionaire known for advocating climate change initiatives.
