About Arrow

Arrow is a Feadship of firsts in various ways, not least the fact that this is the inaugural new-build superyacht commissioned by the owners. This striking 75-metre motoryacht is also the first Feadship to be drawn by Jonny Horsfield and his team at the H2 Yacht Design studio in London, which is a mighty fine way to celebrate 25 years in the business.

The result is a striking Feadship with a complex exterior featuring elegant sculpted elements and shapes. The intricate outdoor spaces include elaborately detailed premium furniture normally associated with an interior with back lit marble and varnished teak. The low glass railing accentuates the sleek lines of the yacht as a whole. High deck heights and expansive gangways make for an outstandingly spacious feel as you walk between areas such as the sun deck with its bespoke mosaic-lined jacuzzi and the sensational beach club aft with a truly unique bar area.

ARROW Yacht – Stunning $120 Million Superyacht

The $120 Million gem known as ARROW yacht belongs to Michael Platt, founder of the third biggest hedge-fund institution in all of Europe – BlueCrest .

He has been renowned for providing businessmen with gains of up to 50% over the years allowing him to reach an overall net worth of over 13 billion dollars.

This procurement of wealth has allowed him to join the ranks of the few people lucky enough to purchase and maintain a flagship superyacht like ARROW, the 75-meter yacht.

ARROW yacht

Like her many counterparts such as Symphony and Venus, she was engineered and built by Feadship ; a shipbuilding company that set out to construct and design high-end and top-quality yachts for clients who want to indulge in their expensive taste.

ARROW superyacht was interiorly designed by H2 Yacht Design, a company with over 20 years of experience in the yacht design industry founded by Jonny Horsfield.

His company also created many other superyachts like Graceful and Talisman C.

Originally built for both indoor and outdoor living, this $120 Million yacht is a spectacle to see. She is 75 meters (246 feet) long, placing her in the top 200 biggest yachts globally.

She boasts a beam of 42 feet, with ample amounts of space for lounging and entertainment. She is built using the standard steel and aluminum combination, much like her superyacht sisters.

ARROW has onboard amenities such as a movie theatre, a sun deck, a steam room, a gym, a jacuzzi, and an infinity view glass. She is also equipped with Wi-Fi and air conditioning throughout.

She is also equipped with onboard jet skis, kayaks, wakeboards, scuba diving equipment, paddleboards, and even specialized e-mountain bikes to maintain the outdoor vacation vibes.

ARROW is powered by 2 MTU Hybrid propulsion engines equipped with 3x C9.3 – 245kWe generators to keep her up and running.

This large motor, along with her 185,000-liter fuel, enables her to travel up to 5,500 nautical miles with a comfortable cruising speed of 14 knots and a max speed of 17 knots.

With onboard anchor stabilizers, one is sure to have a comfortable and enjoyable ride. The cost of running this 1850-tonne vessel is approximately $10 Million, not including docking and maintenance fees. 

Due to her large capacity, ARROW can accommodate 12 guests and 24 crew members by utilizing her for guest staterooms and one VIP stateroom, making it great for getaways.

ARROW can be seasonally chartered and the price ranges between $988 000 to $1 Million per week. She accepts bookings for winter in the Caribbean and the Western Mediterranean in Summer.

Feadship celebrates launch of 75m Arrow

An emotional moment for first-time superyacht owner….

On Friday 10 January, Feadship hosted the official naming ceremony of its latest vessel. This is the first time that 75m Arrow has been seen with her lighting added and exterior outfitting complete.

The ceremony started with a speech from Henk de Vries thanking the owner. “While all Feadships are pure custom projects, there have been quite a number built recently around the 90-metre mark, considerably longer than the 60-metre spectrum that was more common a decade or two ago. At 75 metres, Arrow is right in the middle of this range and a trailblazer for a new and ground-breaking line of super-luxurious boats in this length. She is also an exceptional personal family yacht, quite possibly the best we have ever completed. Arrow  is the perfect way for Feadship to launch into a new decade with a cutting-edge design that is very much the face of this period of the 21st century.”

His first ever yacht purchase, the owner of Arrow stated that the launch is an emotional moment for him. “Although I had a ten-foot dingy as a child, this is actually my first real boat. I have, however, seen many other people’s superyachts in my life and have to say that Arrow is the most beautiful and amazingly executed of them all.

“Working together with Henk and the whole team at Feadship has been an absolute pleasure since the day we agreed the contract. The way everyone seamlessly cooperated to blend the exterior with the interior was an unrivalled experience for me. Having now seen the end result there is no doubt in my mind: the best car is a Rolls-Royce and the equivalent in the superyacht world is definitely a Feadship.”

According to data from The Superyacht Agency, Feadship currently has four more vessels due for delivery in 2020. Additionally, in support of Henk de Vries’ statement, when looking at the average LOA of yachts delivered since 2010, it is evident that Feadship is currently delivering larger yachts than in previous years

The 75m (246') luxury motor yacht ARROW (Project 703) was built by the prestigious shipbuilder Feadship in the Netherlands. Her exterior and interior were developed by H2 Yacht Design led by Jonny Horsfield, while De Voogt Naval Architects worked on the yacht's naval architecture. M/Y ARROW was delivered in 2020 and accommodates up to 12 guests over six en-suite cabins, with a crew of 19 to ensure that everyone on board receives first-class service.

NOTABLE FEATURES OF ARROW: ~ Approved RYA Water Sports Centre ~ Fully custom yacht ~ Sundeck Jacuzzi ~ Sundeck gym ~ Beach club with bar ~ Luxurious interiors ~ Large collection of water toys ~ Lift/elevator ~ Air conditioning ~ Wi-Fi

The ample lower deck swim platform connects with the beach club to make a large terrace beside the water. Two staircases join to the main deck aft, where there is a large social area of corner sofas and coffee tables for unwinding beneath the shade of the bridge deck overhang.

The bridge deck aft provide a large area for outdoor gatherings with sunbeds and curving seating along the stern that can be shaded by a canvas bimini. The foredeck has been left clear for a variety of uses, including outdoor exercise and use as a sunbathing and lounging space.

The sundeck is split into an aft section and forward section, with the former providing plenty of plush seating in the sunshine for large guest gatherings, with refreshments provided by the wet bar. The latter area is furnished with curving sofas and tables for casual alfresco dining from the barbeque grill. Two large sunbeds with a raised Jacuzzi in between fit into the forward section for guests to soak with sweeping views of the location.

The interiors by H2 Yacht Design are light, contemporary and refined, using a variety of textures and matte and gloss finishes. The beach club is one such space that guests will encounter when they step aboard, and within there is a wet bar with widescreen TV and plenty of plush white seating to rest out of the sun.

ARROW Specifications

Both the main deck salon combined with the formal dining area and the skylounge continue with the same styling, offering high quality entertainment and a layout for large groups and intimate conversations alike.

The sundeck interior contains the well-equipped gym and has warm honey tones and large windows down the length of both sides of the room. There is easy access forward and aft through glass sliding doors, and all decks are easily accessible using the lift (elevator).

Billionaire fights to dock his boat on water behind his house. His 164-foot boat, that is.

The love of the water, and a mega-yacht to enjoy it, is putting one resident at odds with village of north palm beach leaders..

For some people, the ultimate Florida lifestyle is a waterfront house , a private dock and a boat parked next to it. But what if that boat is a mega-yacht , and the mega-yacht stretches 164 feet?

That's the conundrum facing the Village of North Palm Beach.

This tiny community in northern Palm Beach County, with only 13,000 full-time residents, has an identity so tied to the water that a ship's steering wheel is the village's emblem.

But it's that love of the water that is putting one resident at odds with village leaders.

For the past several years, homeowner Michael Bozutto has been battling the village for the right to park his 164-foot Westport, dubbed Honey, behind a home he owns at 932 Shore Drive.

The house, built in 1961, is a one-story, ranch-style property with three bedrooms on a half-acre lot. Bozzuto paid $840,247 for the house in 2014, according to Palm Beach County property records.

Lawsuit rooted in dispute over where to dock mega-yacht

What makes this plain house special is its location. It's on a rare corner bordered on the north and east by navigable waters that provide access to the Atlantic Ocean via the Lake Worth Inlet. The east-facing dock is large enough to accommodate Bozzuto's motor yacht.

Since Bozutto bought Honey for an undisclosed sum a decade ago, he mostly has parked it at the Old Port Cove Marina, near Tiger Woods' 155-foot showy mega-yacht, ironically dubbed Privacy.

More recently, Bozzuto has wanted to park Honey alongside his Shore Drive house, one of four houses he owns in the village. While Bozzuto keeps some personal property at the Shore Drive house, he lives at a house he owns at Harbour Isles Court.

Village officials warned Bozzuto he can't park Honey at 932 Shore Drive because boats can only be parked on docks behind houses that are occupied by the homeowner.

But village rules do not define the word "occupied." For instance, the rules do not state that occupied means the house is a residence where the owner lives. Village rules also contain no restrictions on the size of boats that can be kept at private docks.

After years of pushing back against what he believes are fuzzy rules, Bozzuto in March filed a lawsuit against the village.

More: Cannonsport Marina sells for $58.5 million in big deal for tiny Palm Beach Shores

He alleged the municipality is illegally depriving him of his property rights because nothing in the village code prevents him from mooring Honey at his house. He is asking a Palm Beach County Circuit Court judge to rule that he has a constitutional right to dock Honey there.

Gregory Coleman, Bozzuto's West Palm Beach attorney, said the village has plenty of waterfront homes with yachts parked behind them. But Coleman said the village is illegally blocking Bozzuto from docking Honey at his house because the village is bending to pressure from a handful of neighbors who think the boat is too big.

The selective enforcement is wrong, said Coleman, a former president of the Florida Bar.

"He's a very under-the-radar guy who doesn't cause anybody any problems," Coleman said of Bozzuto. "He pays his property taxes, and he wants to be left alone by the village of North Palm Beach. Unfortunately, they are singling Mike out."

Neither Leonard Rubin, the village's longtime attorney, nor Village Manager Chuck Huff responded to requests for comment.

Eric Stettin, a Fort Lauderdale-based attorney who is representing the village in the Bozzuto lawsuit, said he could not comment on pending litigation.

What good is a man's castle if he can't have a boat in his moat?

Coleman's lawsuit describes the conflict as a battle over property rights, but real estate and yachting experts say it's also a sign of the times.

As wealthy new residents pour into the county wanting all the perks of the Sunshine State, they want a boat to go along with their waterfront homes and golf club memberships. Some longtime residents fear Palm Beach County is turning into a playground for billionaires, to the detriment of everyday people who also want to live in sunshine and peace.

This conflict between Old Florida and new money is an ever-present tension, but even seasoned yacht brokers say they've never seen interest in luxury yachts quite as strong as it is now.

"What we've seen in the marketplace right after COVID in the yachting industry, and especially the superyacht segment, is the most incredible growth ever seen in the history of yachting to date," said Shannon McCoy, a luxury yacht advisor and broker with Worth Avenue Yachts in Palm Beach.

"A lot of people are moving here with serious money," added Pascal Savoy, U.S. managing director of Camper & Nicholsons International yacht brokers in Fort Lauderdale.

While in the past Palm Beach County was not considered lively enough for some buyers, Savoy said the county's growing sophistication is putting it on the map in a way never seen before.

"It's a mini-Monaco for us," Savoy said.

Prices for mega-yachts can range from $18 million to $60 million, or many times that, for the largest and most decked-out mega-yachts, Savoy said.

While some yachts can be glitzy, a 164-foot Westport is considered a more low-profile boat, Savoy added.

Michael Bozzuto's interests: Houses, boats and philanthropy

Bozzuto is no newcomer to North Palm Beach. He's been a resident of the village for 20 years.

He is the billionaire owner of a family-owned supermarket wholesaler in Connecticut, and an investor and philanthropist who likes to collect houses and yachts, Coleman said.

In addition to the four North Palm Beach houses and several yachts he owns, Bozzuto in February paid a whopping $31.1 million for a house in the Town of Palm Beach Shores. The house, which has two docks, sits just north of the Palm Beach/Lake Worth Inlet.

Coleman said there is plenty of room for other boaters to navigate the waterway when Honey is parked at the Shore Drive house in North Palm Beach. And while other people may not have as large a yacht, there are other sizeable yachts parked on docks behind other North Palm Beach homes, too, he added.

At a 2017 village council meeting, then-Mayor Darryl Aubrey commented on the issue, according to the complaint.

"When I didn't live here full time, I had a boat sitting in my dock, I was gone nine months of the year. I don't see how you can say that someone has to be in a residence year-round, seems to be some interpretation of occupant, there would be an enormous number of violations," Aubrey said.

Another member of the village council asked if the village had a definition now, the complaint said.

Rubin, the village attorney, replied: "No, we don't," according to the lawsuit.

Palm Beach County's waterways run deep, and they are popular

The yacht docking dispute is particularly timely, given the scarcity of dock space for boats of all sizes.

The most convenient place to park a boat is on the water behind a house, brokers say. But not every waterway or channel can accommodate the draft, or depth, of a mega-yacht.

However, the dock behind Bozzuto's Shore Drive house can.

Not only is the Westport not known for its deep hulls, but the waterway also is typical of northern Palm Beach County, which boasts deep water and easy access to the ocean via the Lake Worth Inlet, said Coleman, a lifelong boater.

"In Palm Beach County, they have deeper water, and it allows people to have larger yachts," Savoy agreed.

But not every waterway is deep enough for every boat.

McCoy said she specializes in helping advise potential yacht owners about the county's varied water depths before they buy a house, if they plan to dock their yacht behind it.

If yacht owners don't have a private dock, the other option is a marina. But marina space is hard to find, with many dock berths reserved for months in advance, McCoy said.

Despite the challenges of owning a boat and finding a place to dock it, yacht brokers say demand continues.

They see interest continuing from business executives moving here with their families as they relocate their companies to Palm Beach County. There's also a growing demand for yachts among female buyers, McCoy added.

They also see younger mega-yacht buyers, some even in their early 30s. This is in sharp contrast to the mostly older buyers in the past, Savoy said.

Palm Beach County may not be as go-go as Miami-Dade County when it comes to showy ships, but if interest continues, "it's coming," Savoy said. "You're going to attract bigger yachts."

Put another way: "No one needs a boat, but everyone needs a boat," McCoy said. "It's the ultimate lifestyle."

The unspoken rules about how to behave on a superyacht

• The superyachting world is very small, with only 5,800 yachts longer than 30 meters at sea.
• That insularity has bred a specific etiquette, which is often hard for outsiders to know about.
• These are the de facto rules of the most expensive billionaire toys, superyachts .

For the owners of superyachts , privacy is often the most valuable thing money can buy. It's one reason centimillionaires and billionaires pay eight or nine figures for a palace at sea, far from the prying eyes of land dwellers.

Even the most gossipy crew members should stay tight-lipped about the name of a former owner or charter guest, and many brokers shy away from answering benign questions.

That means that, aside from basic safety guidelines, most of the rules of superyachting are unwritten. The very few who need to know them — there are only about 5,800 yachts longer than 30 meters at sea, according to SuperYacht Times — already know them.

But if you do happen to be a lucky guest at a party on a billionaire's $500 million ship or find yourself included in a $1 million-a-week vacation, there are a few things you need to know.

After four days of touring superyachts that sell for as much as $75 million and chatting with the people who buy, sell, and work on them at the Palm Beach International Boat Show , Business Insider gleaned a few key edicts. Given the discreet nature of the industry, almost all the people we spoke with requested anonymity to protect their working relationships, but here's what they had to say.

Take off your shoes

While it's a basic rule for anyone in boating, it may come as a surprise to an outsider that no matter how rich you are or how expensive your heels are, in the vast majority of cases, you can't wear shoes on board.

It's partly for safety — you don't want anyone slipping on a wet deck — but partly to keep the yacht clean. So expect to see barefoot billionaires, and if you forgot to get a pedicure, bring a set of special boat shoes.

Don't make any assumptions about money — but know the signs

In the superyacht world, it's safe to assume almost everyone you meet is very, very rich, and many brokers and builders say you can't judge a book by its cover when it comes to prospective clients.

"It has nothing to do with how they're dressed," one broker told BI. "It's the biggest mistake you can make because a complete slobby-looking guy or couple could be a multibillionaire."

There are, however, a few clues. Watches are one; new footwear is another.

"Rich people always have new shoes," a superyacht expert said. But because of the shoe rule mentioned above, this tip probably applies only when they're on land.

Book your massage early

Wellness areas, including spa rooms with a massage bed or two and a professional-grade facial machine, are becoming must-haves on superyachts . Most have a customized spa menu and a crew member who doubles as a trained masseuse or beautician — and they're usually in high demand.

One captain said he'd implemented a booking system to ensure people weren't fighting for the same spots. A broker said sometimes masseuses would be so busy they wouldn't leave the small spa cabin for hours on end.

So if you want to make the most of your relaxing time on board, reserve your pampering slot as soon as you get your welcome cocktail.

Pirates are more real than you'd think, and many superyachts have hidden safe rooms

While you might dress up as a fake pirate for an onboard theme party, there are very real ones — and other dangers — on the high seas.

In certain areas, including parts of the Indian Ocean and the Gulf of Aden, pirates are a cause of concern . In the Red Sea, owners are concerned about the Houthis .

Superyachts can come equipped with sonic weaponry, lockdown systems, and anti-drone protection. Builders are even designing safe rooms — which are apparently just as plush as the rest of the ship.

The longer the boat, the closer to $1 billion

While you can't judge a buyer based on appearances, you can judge them on the length of their boat.

One rule of thumb: If someone has a brand-new 50-meter vessel, chances are they have $1 billion to their name. If it's over 100 meters, expect the owner to have at least $2 billion. And for a boat bigger than that — like Jeff Bezos' 127-meter megayacht Koru — it takes many, many billions.

Money can't buy you everything

The world's biggest, most expensive yachts are custom-built by shipyards that produce only a handful of boats a year.

But no matter how many tens of millions of dollars clients are spending, there are things to which builders will refuse to say yes.

"In the end, the boat has our name," an executive from one of the world's biggest shipyards told BI.

They recalled a client who requested a yellow hull to match his Lamborghini . The shipyard declined, steering the client in another direction.

"If I don't like it, I don't build it. I finalize two or three contracts a year," another builder said. "If somebody can say your vessel is ugly, my reputation is bad."

Yacht crews are trained to make the impossible possible. A guest requests fresh caviar flown into the middle of the Caribbean? No problem. Fresh flowers every day while at sea? It'll cost you, but it can be done.

But they can't time travel, and captains and crew members say the thing that causes the most friction is when a client or owner wants to go from point A to point B — right now.

"The hardest request is when they want the boat in a place — yesterday," one captain said.

The best person to know? A friend with a superyacht

Superyachts are expensive to build and expensive to maintain . According to the industry standard, owning a superyacht will cost 10% of its new-build price annually. For a $100 million yacht, that's at least $10 million yearly going to crew, regular maintenance, insurance, fuel, and dockage.

Chartering, too, is costly . Beyond the list price, which can be hundreds of thousands a week, guests must pay for provisions, which are pegged at 35% of the charter fee, and are expected to tip between 10% and 20%.

So the most important unspoken rule of superyachting is actually that the only thing better than owning a superyacht is knowing someone else who does — and invites you along, of course.

New York's AI Chatbot Keeps Getting Facts Wrong, 6 Months and $600,000 After Launch The MyCity chatbot was said to be the first city-wide use of AI — but it keeps giving business owners (and us) law-breaking advice.

By Sherin Shibu • Apr 5, 2024

Key Takeaways

• The MyCity Chatbot is meant to help NYC businesses "quickly find information on many of the City's business services."
• But the chatbot has been reportedly providing misleading, and potentially illegal, answers to questions.
• We tested it out and found several inaccuracies.

MyCity, New York City's first citywide AI chatbot that launched in October 2023, promised to save entrepreneurs "time and money" with immediate answers to questions, including ones about compliance with city regulations.

But six months and more than $600,000 later, the bot , which is still in beta but widely available, is reportedly spitting out wrong answers to key questions about the city's minimum wage, if employers could take workers' tips, and if businesses had to tell staff about schedule changes, per The Markup .

Following the chatbot's advice could have led to trouble for business owners who used it and failed to fact-check answers.

But New York City Mayor Eric Adams is defending the AI chatbot, Reuters reported on Thursday.

Adams defended the experimental nature of the chatbot this week, telling the outlet that "it's wrong in some areas, and we've got to fix it."

"Any time you use technology, you need to put it into the real environment to iron out the kinks," Adams said.

When Entrepreneur tested the chatbot Friday, it had corrected its answers to some of The Markup 's queries. But when we asked the MyCity chatbot what the minimum wage was in NYC, it said $15 per hour.

The correct answer is $16 per hour.

The bot also wrote that "store owners in New York City are allowed to go cashless," even though NYC's consumer and worker protection policies state that "beginning November 19, 2020, stores must accept cash… They cannot charge more for paying in cash."

Questions asked by Entrepreneur also yielded inaccuracies, specifically on new policy changes in NYC that took effect this year.

For example, when we asked if businesses have to post the total price of an item, inclusive of the credit card surcharge, before checkout, the chatbot incorrectly responded no. Legislation that went into effect in February makes the correct answer yes.

A disclaimer at the bottom of the page cautions that the chatbot's responses may "occasionally" be "inaccurate or incomplete."

Still, the MyCity Chatbot takes center stage on the NYC Business homepage as a way to "quickly find information on many of the City's business services."

Adams stated in October that business owners could more readily access "trusted information" from 2,000 NYC Business webpages with the bot. The city's Office of Technology and Innovation spent over half a million dollars ($600,000) to build the basis of the AI, according to ABC .

Marsa showcases a sleek exterior from the drawing board of British designer Tim Heywood. The owner opted for a distinctive two-tone paint job, with the hull, curves, and arches finished in Whisper Gray and the windbreakers decked out in dark gray.

Penned by U.K. firm Winch Design, the elegant interiors were designed with long expeditions in mind. (The owner intends to spend extended periods at sea, exploring the Mediterranean and beyond.) The sprawling living quarters, which can be navigated via a four-deck elevator, include cabins for up to 12 guests and space for lounging, entertaining, and working. The owner also decided to add a balcony to the main deck and an outdoor bar to every level because alfresco cocktails are always welcome after the nine-to-five slog.

As for cruising, Marsa is equipped with a hybrid diesel-electric propulsion system that enables her to travel some 4,500 nautical miles at 15.5 knots. In other words, the yacht could travel from Amsterdam in the Netherlands to the U.S. (4,042 nautical miles) with no problems. She’ll release fewer emissions than a traditional gas-powered vessel, too.

“For me, again I say this is the most beautiful yacht we’ve made, but I seem to say that with every delivery,” Oomkens added.

Marsa will now embark upon her maiden voyage, following a private itinerary created by her owner.

David and Victoria Beckham Spend Easter on a $20 Million Superyacht

By Katie Schultz

David and Victoria Beckham were, apparently, in need of a bigger boat. The power couple reportedly upgraded their $6.5 million, 100-foot-long yacht , the Riva Argo 90, to a $20 million Italian superyacht, the Riva 130 Bellissima. 130 feet long with a volume of 299 gross tons, the 2022-built structure boasts plenty of space for the A-list family to sprawl out.

The pair were photographed last week riding a dinghy out to the watercraft along with their children Harper, Romeo, Cruz, and Brooklyn, who brought his wife , Nicola Peltz Beckham. It’s not entirely clear if the soccer legend purchased or merely chartered the yacht, but some outlets have been speculating that he owns it outright, a theory supported by the fact that the boat has been customized with the name “Seven,” which is both Beckham’s former jersey number and Harper’s middle name.

The Beckhams continued to celebrate Easter weekend aboard the vessel; Victoria , David , and Brooklyn all shared Instagram photos of themselves wearing bunny ears on the sleek silver watercraft alongside holiday well-wishes in their photo captions.

As chef Joshua Weissman welcomes AD into his Austin home in the latest episode of Open Door, he jokes that he doesn’t actually live in a kitchen.

Five suites aboard the structure can accommodate up to 10 people, in addition to space for seven crew members. There’s also a beach club (a lounge area close to the water) with a swimming platform, a top-deck jacuzzi, and narrow-plank teak decking throughout the three levels. A 215-square-foot garage houses a jetski, tender, and seabob.

Flash Sale: Join AD PRO for only $20 $12 per month

The Beckhams maintain a penthouse unit in Zaha Hadid’s Miami tower One Thousand Museum, a countryside retreat in the Cotswolds , and their primary home, a four-story Victorian townhouse in Holland Park, London, which the couple bought in 2013 for an approximately $38 million and spent another $10 million renovating.

Farmworker who survived mass shooting at Northern California mushroom farm sues company and owner

By OLGA R. RODRIGUEZ and HAVEN DALEY Associated Press

HALF MOON BAY, Calif. (AP) — A migrant farmworker who survived a mass shooting at a Northern California mushroom farm has filed a lawsuit against the farm and one of its owners. The lawsuit filed this week says the owner failed to keep him safe from the co-worker who authorities say committed the killings last year. Prosecutors say Chunli Zhao barged into the shipping container that was home to Pedro Romero Perez and his brother Jose Romero Perez and opened fire, killing Jose and wounding Pedro. Prosecutors say Zhao killed three other colleagues at the farm on Jan, 23, 2023. They say he then drove to another mushroom farm where he shot to death three former co-workers. Zhao has pleaded not guilty.
