The Netherlands' Rotterdam will reportedly dismantle its 'De Hef' bridge, built in 1927, to allow passage for a 127-metre-long superyacht that's being built in Alblasserdam for world's second richest person Jeff Bezos. The Amazon Founder and shipbuilder Oceanco will pay the costs incurred, local media said. The $500-million three-masted yacht will need to pass through Rotterdam to reach the ocean.
