扎克伯格的游艇距离更近，但最终是别人救助了搁浅船只
The small cruise ship Wilderness Legacy rescued the skiff that ran out of fuel. 小型游轮“荒野遗产号”（Wilderness Legacy）救助了一艘燃料耗尽的小艇。
Earlier this week, the Alaskan cruise ship Wilderness Legacy rescued a small skiff stranded near Farragut Bay after running out of fuel. But, according to tracking data reviewed by the Alaska Beacon and Halifax Shipping News, the closest vessel was actually Mark Zuckerberg’s super yacht, Launchpad. 本周早些时候，阿拉斯加游轮“荒野遗产号”在法拉格特湾（Farragut Bay）附近救助了一艘因燃料耗尽而搁浅的小艇。然而，根据《阿拉斯加灯塔报》（Alaska Beacon）和《哈利法克斯航运新闻》（Halifax Shipping News）查阅的追踪数据显示，当时距离最近的船只其实是马克·扎克伯格的超级游艇“发射台号”（Launchpad）。
Michael Love, a passenger on the Wilderness Legacy, posted on Bluesky that the captain announced the Launchpad was closer, but “repeatedly refused to respond,” which was met with booing from the passengers. The AIS tracking (embedded below) seems to support that the Launchpad was closer to the vessel in trouble, but then stopped near the entrance of the bay. The Wilderness Legacy can be seen passing Launchpad, then turning around and towing the stranded boat back to safety. “荒野遗产号”上的一名乘客迈克尔·洛夫（Michael Love）在 Bluesky 上发帖称，船长曾宣布“发射台号”距离更近，但该游艇“多次拒绝回应”，这引起了乘客们的嘘声。AIS 追踪记录（见下文）似乎证实了“发射台号”确实离遇险船只更近，但随后停在了海湾入口附近。从记录中可以看到“荒野遗产号”经过了“发射台号”，随后掉头并将搁浅船只拖回了安全地带。
The US Coast Guard and the Marine Exchange of Alaska did not immediately respond to a request for comment. But Coast Guard Public Affairs Specialist Shannon Shepard told the Alaska Beacon that “at approximately 9:56 p.m., the Coast Guard determined they were not in distress and issued a marine assistance request broadcast on their behalf.” 美国海岸警卫队和阿拉斯加海事交易所没有立即回应置评请求。但海岸警卫队公共事务专员香农·谢泼德（Shannon Shepard）告诉《阿拉斯加灯塔报》：“大约在晚上 9 点 56 分，海岸警卫队确定他们并无生命危险，并代表他们发布了海上援助请求广播。”
Brian Baker, spokesperson for Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan, told The Verge that “Mark and his family were not on board at the time of the incident. As the Coast Guard noted, the boat was not in distress, and by the time the crew reviewed the Coast Guard contact on a different radio channel from the one they were operating on, the assist was already underway. We’re grateful all parties are safe.” 马克·扎克伯格和普莉希拉·陈的发言人布莱恩·贝克（Brian Baker）告诉《The Verge》：“事发时，马克及其家人并不在船上。正如海岸警卫队所指出的，该船只并无生命危险。当船员在他们所使用的频道之外的另一个无线电频道上收到海岸警卫队的联系时，救援行动已经展开。我们很庆幸所有人都平安无事。”
