I am going to post every yacht connection I was able to find on our models. Then we'll do a count and look for patterns.
May 2013 Cannes:
Yachts are on the scene, both Karlie and Lily are in the area, but I don’t think either of our gals were on a yacht. The photos are tagged with a hotel.
Dec 31, 2013-
The New Year’s Eve party is labeled as “Puffy’s Yacht” so IDK if Karlie stayed on the yacht, but she attended a party on one.
Note, Josh was there, on the beach, but we have Karlie kissing Derek on the yacht at midnight?
March 2015-
Lily is at the #CruiseWithKarl party, but it seems like the boat was docked. It didn’t look like true yachting, more like modeling work.
May 23, 2015-
This time at Cannes, both Lily and Karlie are named at the yacht party. No pics of Karlie… Also, I’m not sure it was true yachting, with sleeping and travel. It looks like they both just showed for the party?
The Cannes International Film Festival currently has the world’s attention thanks to some amazing cinematic moments but even the most serious movie buffs will take an opportunity to let their hair down and party hard. Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen’s annual yacht party is supposed to be a legendary affair that takes place on his 414-foot yacht, the Octopus- supposedly one of the grandest super yachts in the world boasting 40 guest suites, a pool, two helicopter pads and a mini submarine. This year’s theme was Bollywood and the star studded guest list included Amy Poehler, John C. Reilly, Leonardo DiCaprio, Natalie Portman, Karlie Kloss, Joan Smalls, Antonio Banderas, Jessica Lowndes and Lily Donaldson among others.
While the Cannes Film Festival is synonymous with great filmmaking and beautiful dresses showcased on the red carpet, it is also known for the yachts moored in the harbor – where anybody who is anybody arrives for their premiere aboard one. This is not to mention the parties that are hosted aboard some of the biggest and most spectacular mega-yachts, where the world’s most famous hop from one to the next, barefoot and ready to party.
This year was no different with celebs out in force and seen on yachts throughout the festival’s duration. The most famous party of them all is the one hosted by Microsoft giant Paul Allen, whose yacht named Octopus is a 126m vessel and is one of the most recognized boats in the world.
May 25, 2015-
Karlie is named, but I couldn’t find her in pictures. Also, it looks like a party (Karlie’s 4th yacht party if she is, in fact, there) not sleeping/traveling on the yacht.
July 2015-
Karlie’s first true yachting experience? It’s labeled “cruise” but I couldn’t find the name of the boat or the owner… There’s travel and multiple days involved though.
Oct 2015-
Lily does a photoshoot on a yacht. It seems for work only?
New Years 2016:
Karlie is pictured over the holiday on the yacht, Eos with Derek and some of the Who’s Who of Who’s that. I did not see Josh in any of the pictures.
Von Furstenberg’s three-masted schooner is considered the largest in the world at 305 feet long. The yacht took three years to build and was launched from the Lürssen yard in Bremen, Germany in 2006. It is valued at $150 million and can host up to 16 guests and 21 crew members at any given time.
May 2016:
Karlie attends a party on Roman Abramovich’s yacht. Recognize the name? Rumored to be Lily Donaldson’s… something. I didn’t see pics or mention of her, and this seems like just a party, not sleep/travel yachting.
July 2016-
In the first article, Karlie is just name-checked, I don’t think she was there, that time. But you’ll notice some of her Who’s Who friends in the pic. In the second pic Karlie is yachting off the coast of Capri. Who’s yacht? Who’s there? Who knows.
July 2016-
Lily is also yachting in July of 2016. It’s for Leonardo DiCaprio’s party/fundraiser/gala, and I think this is the entire reason Lily has a reputation as a “yacht girl.” Despite a decided lack of internet proof of other yachting adventures. This party was highly publicized with tons of pictures. There were fun times, but it looks like a lot of modeling work was being done as well.
Male gaze, fuck off.
Jan 2017:
Karlie is on, if I had to guess, David Geffen’s yacht. Seems like a New Year’s tradition was started for her and Derek and some of the Who’s Who. No sign of Josh again.
<the blank spot links to the video below>
New Years 2018-
The tradition continues for Karlie, Derek, and the Who’s Who. This time Josh even got to go.
In all billion and a half pics of Derek’s Instagram, which started July 2012, this 2018 snap was only the 2nd pic including Josh:
July 2018 on David Geffen’s yacht Rising Sun:
Karlie, Josh, and Who’s Who are joined by Paul McCartney.
Over the weekend, the 75-year-old studio exec (who is worth around $8.5 bil), partied alongside Karlie Kloss, her beau Joshua Kushner, adorable oil heir Mike Hess, It Girl designer Misha Nonoo, and Paul McCartney aboard his $200 million yacht, Rising Sun. The well-to-do group also included fellow business bros, Henry Kravis and Barry Diller (sans his wife, Diane von Furstenberg).
Here is the labeled pic (eff Daily mail and their stupid subscription):
Here is the clearer version:
July 2018 on Yacht Eos:
I get the impression this is more like lunch on a yacht than yachting. Karlie and Harry were both at Google Camp, but probably in the hotel.
It would be so difficult to decide on which yacht one might prefer to spend a lazy summer day—Karlie Kloss is a frequent guest of David Geffen’s, but she most recently took a photo on Barry Diller’s yacht with Harry Styles and Diane von Furstenberg.
Aug 3, 2019:
Karlie is on David Geffen’s yacht with Josh. Again. A new set of billionaires and important Who’s Whos joined them.
Also on Friday, journalist Yashar Ali tweeted a photo of Kloss engaging in pre-birthday celebrations with husband Joshua Kushner on music mogul David Geffen's yacht Rising Sun (reportedly worth $590 million). On board were Oprah, Gayle King, Discovery Communications CEO David Zaslav, former Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein.
Aug 8, 2019-
It’s a busy summer for yachting. Karlie is on David Geffen’s yacht again, but it looks like a different crew of Who’s Who.
In one of Geffen's posts, none other than world's richest man Jeff Bezos, joined by his girlfriend Lauren Sanchez, can be seen reclining in a bean bag chair. Karlie Kloss and husband Joshua Kushner came along, as did Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein, big-time Hollywood agent Michael Kives, and fashion designer (and close friend of Meghan Markle) Misha Nonoo, who is engaged to millionaire entrepreneur Michael Hess.
Now, I can’t be sure, but I think the blonde next to Karlie is Scooter Braun’s wife of the time, Yael… Meaning Scooter might be taking the pic. IF that’s the case, the below yachting is the same yacht trip. If it’s not, there was a THIRD yacht vaca in August 2019.
+/- Aug 12, 2019
Different or same yacht voyage for Karlie and Josh?
July 2020-
Lily goes on the yacht with Alshair Fiyaz. The article insinuates this happens a lot, but I couldn’t find anymore articles or pics. And remember how Karlie was on his yacht in prior years. I don’t know if this is where the Lily/Alshair marriage rumors originated, but if this is it, it’s very weak evidence, IMO.
Jan 2022:
The New Year’s yacht tradition continues for Karlie. She is careful not to reveal who is with her.

_______________________________________________________________
Lily = 2 yacht parties & 2 times working on a yacht,
One of the jobs seemed like some yachting fun was allowed w/the work.
Karlie = 5 yacht parties and a luncheon.
And 10-11 yachting voyages.
Also, I should mention Cara, the Hadids, and other models and celebrities were often on those yachts also.
Also, of interest I tallied Derek vs. Josh as Karlie’s cruise companion, and noticed there was only one trip where both were present:

Derek accompanied Karlie 4 times from 2013 to New Year’s 2018.
Josh was with Karlie 5-6 times from New Year’s 2018 to Aug 2019.
Next, we'll discuss the phenomenon of beautiful women on wealthy men's yachts.
