Starbucks owner's superyacht with helipad and glass-bottomed pool in Cornwall
The luxury yacht of billionaire Starbucks boss Howard Schultz has been spotted in Cornwall.
The yacht, named Pi, has an estimated worth of £118million and arrived at Falmouth Harbour on Wednesday morning. It was then moved to Pendennis Shipyard.
The vessel was built in 2019 and has a length of 77 metres, making it the 195th largest yacht in the world.
Pi can host up to 12 guests and 18 crew members and has its own helicopter pad, glass-bottomed swimming pool and onboard spa facilities.
Mr Schultz bought the famous coffee chain in the 1980s and is ranked by Forbes as the 209th richest person in the world with a net worth of £3.7billion.
He is credited as Starbucks’ founder despite the company being founded in 1971 by Jerry Baldwin, Zev Siegl, and Gordon Bowker at Seattle’s Pike Place Market.
The businessman made most of his billion-dollar fortune thanks to Starbucks. He served as the chief executive officer from 1986 to 2000 and returned during the financial crisis of 2007–08.
He recently returned to his role as CEO of the company.
