Tilman Fertitta, a 69-year-old multimillionaire, is the US ambassador to Italy. He is currently on his $450 million yacht, the Boardwalk, in the Mediterranean. Fertitta wants to show that he has a normal kitchen on the yacht, a casual space where people can eat. He mentions it is unusual for a large yacht to have such a kitchen.

The kitchen is informal, allowing the yacht's family to spend time and possibly make themselves a meal. Fertitta installed it for this purpose.

Further details about the ambassador and his yacht are available from the source, including an account of his activities on the yacht.
