EVERETT — A motorboat, right, pulls away from Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s 387-foot superyacht, Launchpad, moored near the Port of Everett on Thursday morning.

Launchpad, valued at an estimated $300 million, is part of a larger luxury fleet owned by Zuckerberg that includes a 220-foot support vessel, Wingman, valued around $30 million.

Before Everett, Launchpad was seen Tuesday in Lake Union and later Elliott Bay. The sightings of the superyacht coincides with news of layoff notices for 1,400 Meta employees in the Washington state area.
