Google's Page buys Kiwi mega yacht

 

Another swashbuckling Larry.

Google co-founder Larry Page will join Oracle's Larry Ellison as the latest technology czar to hit the high seas on a lavishly decked out super yacht.

According to the New Zealand Herald, the 59 metre yacht, which was owned by New Zealand booze mogul, Sir Arthur "Douglas" Myers, was listed for €35 million ($46 million).

Page had reportedly been eyeing the yacht for some time and "took delivery" of it before the end of 2010.

The yacht features indoor and outdoor dining areas, a gym and jacuzzi, and to top it off a helicopter and 13 metre runabout.

A photo gallery of Page's new boat can be viewed here.
