SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) -- A one-of-a-kind super yacht was seen steaming into the San Diego Bay Thursday morning, but who does it belong to? The San Diego Web Cam livestream caught the moment on video around 9 a.m., showing a 387-foot-long yacht making its way to America's Finest City. According to Marine Traffic, a website that tracks ships and vessels as they travel across the globe, the vessel's name is LAUNCHPAD and is listed as "pleasure craft." Plane lands on the 76 highway in Oceanside; narcotics found onboard After further investigation, it appears this specific super yacht was originally commissioned to Russian oligarch Vladimir Potanin, who was listed on multiple sanctions lists. It eventually left the Dutch shipyard it resided in when the sale to its news owner -- an American -- was approved. According to Yacht World, the LAUNCHPAD sold for around $300 million. It's rumored to boast features like a tennis court, a helicopter deck, a private cinema, a gym and deck jacuzzi. The yacht is likely able to host up to 24 guests. So who is enjoying this luxury super yacht along the coast of San Diego? Here's a hint: he's behind the vision of what many now know as the "Metaverse." The LAUNCHPAD belongs to none other than Facebook creator Mark Zuckerberg -- the richest man in all of California and the fourth richest person on the globe, according to Forbes' World's Billionaires List.
