Forget Mark Zuckerberg's superyacht; his 'little' support vessel that carries his jet skis, helicopter, and boats, is so big that when docked in Greece, it overshadowed everything at the harbor with its sheer size. Even an 18-wheeler looked like a Matchbox truck next to it.

Mark Zuckerberg’s 67-meter support vessel Wingman recently made a stop at the Port of Corinth for refueling, drawing significant attention from passersby, maritime enthusiasts, and local media. Despite being a support vessel and nearly half the size of its mothership Launchpad, Wingman dominated the harbor, dwarfing nearby yachts and fishing boats alike.

One particular image from the scene shared on Facebook by Greek photographers Vassilis & Valerie shows an 18-wheeler truck parked near the dock looking almost comically small beside the towering steel presence of the vessel, putting into perspective the immense scale of this floating machine.

Built in 2014 by Damen, one of the most respected shipbuilders in the world, Wingman isn’t just a support vessel. It is a finely engineered, ultra-functional piece of nautical machinery dressed in minimalist elegance.

Originally owned by Gabe Newell, the cofounder of video game company Valve, Wingman was later acquired by Zuckerberg and has since become a critical component of his growing fleet. The vessel was designed to accompany a larger yacht, in this case, Zuckerberg’s flagship Launchpad, a 118-meter Lurssen built superyacht launched in 2023. While Launchpad steals the spotlight with its sheer length and luxury, Wingman is the workhorse behind the scenes, delivering supplies, equipment, and crew support to ensure seamless voyages for its owner and guests.

Priced at approximately $30 million, Wingman is built for more than just logistics. Equipped with two powerful MTU engines, the vessel can reach speeds up to 25 knots and cruise comfortably at 18 knots, with an impressive range exceeding 3,000 nautical miles. These specifications allow it to not only keep pace with larger yachts but also handle long distance operations independently when necessary. Inside, the vessel accommodates a crew of 20 and houses storage for toys, tenders, jet skis, and possibly even a submersible. Its interiors are designed to meet the high expectations of billionaire owners, practical but far from spartan, with crew amenities and operational spaces outfitted to high standards.

Though Zuckerberg himself was not seen in Corinth, the appearance of Wingman was enough to spark rumors and local excitement. The vessel’s silhouette, angular and industrial, reflects its utilitarian roots, yet it carries an aura of quiet luxury and precision. Whether Launchpad was cruising nearby or anchored at a different location, the stopover at Corinth served as a reminder of the complexity behind such seaborne empires. In a world where megayachts are increasingly supported by a network of auxiliary vessels, Wingman represents the perfect blend of function, size, and status, powerful on its own, and indispensable to something even larger.
