A Turkish newspaper is claiming Facebook founder, Mark Zuckerberg, was the mystery buyer who scooped up a $150 million ultra-luxury super yacht while in Monaco this past September.
The major purchase, which was not and has not been divulged by the Facebook honcho, may be met with scrutiny by many who already question his, ‘billionaire who enjoys life’s simple pleasures,’ persona.

The Hürriyet Daily News reports, the “expedition” yacht, named “Ulysses,” measures 107 meters long, includes dozens of rooms and is primed for journeys as long as 8,500 nautical miles.
He reportedly bought the yacht “in secret” from another self-made billionaire, Graeme Hart. source
More details from this October announcement of the boat’s sale to a mystery buyer:
Facilities on board include eight dining locations, both inside and al fresco, and she has a total of five bars. A fully certified helicopter landing platform has a hangar including a refuelling station and there is also a professional cinema with a stereo surround sound system. For convenience, there is a 13-person guest elevator serving all decks along with a separate eight-person elevator for crew.
No word on if Zuck will helm the wheel in one of his infamous gray t-shirts or if he travels to the harbor in an economy car. One thing is for sure, the boat is known by marine officanados as “the most badass thing ever dropped in the drink”
