I remember both the bridge tour and the engine room tour from Victorious. And am going to watch the engine room one, at a minimum, again. Thanks for the reminder. I would love to see more of those videos. Likewise, the ones about the communications tech stuff, the antennas, and how the systems between engine room, bridge, and automatic things like the various doors all work together. Looking at the array of antennae on the new yacht just delivered, Luminance? reminded me of that. So much good content. The tangled mess of the seizures, sanctions, and machinations around all of that just seem to get worse and worse. I like your reporting on it. Enjoy the weekend, and thank you as always.
A big YES in your comments 😊 my friend. What I find funny is the US government made a big deal about taking the super size vessels as sanctions. But it tells me as time has run out. There is no one who will BUY these super size luxury vessels. Like you pointed out who can afford them. It sounds great for politicians to say we seized their vessels, but who can care for them, let alone buy them to enjoy sailing. It sounds like the only rich people to OWN them after sanctions is the original OWNER 😊
Thanks for the updates! My friend is in Croatia at the moment and has been sending snaps of some of the yachts and superyachts impounded by the government there
@@YachtReport that is perfectly legal, the money paid was listed as a business expense, it was miscellaneous, that was the misdemeanor where the statute of limitations had run out. However Soviet style democrats converted it into 34 felonies. The conviction will notstand after judicial review.
I have a carb 308 and listening to your engine, are you certain all 8 cylinders are firing and timing is correct? Just sounds quite a bit rougher than mine (after warm). Hope u figure it out!
Thank you so much for all the super size luxury vessels 😊 up to date reporting You do excellent 👍 work my friend 😊 One question that I have, did the Captain of the Patrol vessel LOSS his Rank and command. Just asking if anyone knows
Nice to see a Ukrainian business man taking delivery of a $500,000,000 yacht from Lurssen. He most likely needed that size yacht to pick up the $175,000,000,000 aid cheque from the US. Not being political, but it all seems so odd.
Dollar figures of US donations to Ukraine are virtual. As an example, US land mines were surplus and they were valued at $x by accountants, and included in the total amount of $x donated to Ukraine even though they were worthless and going to eventually be destroyed. And in the rare cases where new military equipment is being donated, the equipment is purchased by US government and then delivered to Ukraine ensuring the money goes to a US military supplier. Ukraine never or rarely gets an actual cheque where it is free to purchase what it wants. This way, the USA can also control what features are removed from the used military equipment that gets sent to Ukraine. So the stories of US money going towards purchase of luxury yachts are totally bogus. USA won't allow any of its state of the art equipment to go to Ukraine for fear it could be seized by Soviets who would then gain the technolpgical edge of that equipment.
WRT to the patrol vessel - that was a ballsy move to get that vessel down the channel. Doable under ideal conditions (little to no current, light winds and the sun in the right place) and probably steering by hand). Would have been a good idea to have a tender as a guide dog about 100m ahead. Looks like someone wasn't paying attention, got it wrong or something went wrong. Not a good idea with a brand new crew who were unused to the vessel's characteristics.
I am a layman in these political issues related to seizures, Politics especially the Ukraine / Russia conflict seems to have unfairly disadvantaged the Yacht owners and some other business, specifically Russian linked. We did not have any concerns or questions about ownership of such multimillion dollar assets prior to February 2022. It seems like the owners of these assets have been unfairly treated, and they live in pain every other night. Now if a foreign entity (regardless of the courts determination because the courts cannot be separated from the political pressure) thinks it has powers and transfer ownership of the Yacht (illegal act in my opinion because the issue is political, no substantive claim whatsoever except a connection to the Russia / Ukrainian conflict), and it indeed facilitates that transfer to a new owner. Wouldn't' the aggrieved previous owner exercise further illegal action in return? For example: 1. Repossess the boat at sea using power? 2. Sink the Yacht at sea altogether in retaliation to such an extent that both he and the owner lose out? What do others think?
I can understand an arrest having a 2 year time limit. But if a seizure effectively transfers onwership to the government, how can the governmenmt then relinquish ownership after 2 years ? And if a boat has been seized, would the government typically contract with a boat management firm to hire crews and pay them? or would there be closer management for security purpose to avoid that external management firm being paid by former onwer to scuttle the boat or steal it ? The fact that the official crew allowed those 9 extras to board the ship and work there means the government has already lost effective control of the boat.

What kind of lawyer can afford that yacht????😵💫😵💫😵💫

A corrupt one.
Commission for letting Blackrock steal 30% of Ukraines land 😂😂😂
A lawyer who is also a friend of Putin.
Sell for parts and scrap
Thanks for the updates! My friend is in Croatia at the moment and has been sending snaps of some of the yachts and superyachts impounded by the government there
Security guards ? Probably FSB
Another great video per usual, but did anyone else notice 4 oil tankers and not the 3 reported? 😀
Great investitive reporting. Very interesting. I love your channel
Skat is one of my 2 favorite yachts; there had been a home story with many interior pictures when it released in 2001.
The biggest problem is the weakness of the court to make and stand by a decision
I will keep watch in the Toronto area for anything over 65 feet. LOL
Another great video. Well done! Thx for explanation of Yotspot images will be used eventually! JK Charleston
That fiji boat was a donation from Australia, Difficult place to navigate with those reefs i bet,
Always great stuff. Really appreciate your work.
Awesome video mate 😎 thx for the maritime updates
Great reporting, esp the far flung places and the complex stories. btw please check your apostrophe on "Gates".
Excellent video 👏 Thanks
Nice one mate a good update thanks
MY scat's rear windows look like a shopping centre.
Interesting update 2x👍
It was not a hush money case, it was reporting an amount in a business expense account count not a miscellaneous account.
The money was paid to keep a porn star quiet about an affair hence hush money case. But that is what the media has called it.
@@YachtReportNDAs are totally legal, and it's uncontested that Trump has done prior NDAs to deal with false claims.
@@YachtReport that is perfectly legal, the money paid was listed as a business expense, it was miscellaneous, that was the misdemeanor where the statute of limitations had run out. However Soviet style democrats converted it into 34 felonies. The conviction will notstand after judicial review.
I think that there is a genuine risk that this boat will be seized by the Russians navy in international waters and re-claimed should it be sold.
Thanks this report im enlightened

You mis-spelled photographers first name at 13:18 and misunderstood his surname too
Thank you so much for all the super size luxury vessels 😊 up to date reporting
You do excellent 👍 work my friend 😊
One question that I have, did the Captain of the Patrol vessel LOSS his Rank and command. Just asking if anyone knows
Well the navy would have to do an investigation first, it’s possible he’s at no fault.
Wow, old Bill sure got a nice yacht there. I bet they won't be eating lab grown filet mignon or grasshopper burgers on that ship. Yep, that's a ship
New Zealand is watching

@@jfmezei It was tongue in cheek! The cheques wouldn't weigh much anyway.
Rinat Akhmetov is a businessman and Ukraine’s richest person, and he was the richest person for many years before Russia’s aggression.
No just being a Kremlin stooge!
convenient that the yacht needs 5-6 people to safely operate and sail it.

Can anyone actually track the money realised from the sale of Russian yachts in the Ukraine?
Should have been written Markku Häkkinen. He is a Finn.

What do others think?
They should let the guy buy back his seized yacht, then seize it again!
Various IT tycoons look super-wealthy while the Microsoft company does not look that mega-rich.
Gates is going to reformat your hard drive for this comment.
TH-cam must be blocking eSysman or something ,I have to search for it on youtube ,instead of it just poppin up😡
Unsub then resub.
$6.00 x 10^8 is chump change.
What’s that atop the Breakthrough?
That's a lot of coverage on that impounded yacht! What else is going on in the Super world?
There were five different stories in this video!
To call Medvechuk "Ukranian" is a bit of a stretch.
Perhaps that Russian might want to "buy it back", but only at the new inflated price.
i like boats train and aeroplanes, but when i hear the value and costs of these toys of the rich and powerful, its depressing.
This vessel has been salvaged
Why are only yaches being 'sceized' or 'arrested'....why not homes ?
It’s not only yachts. Many properties, jets, cars and other things have been seized.
Move the boat to Italian or Greek waters.
Sorry Charlie, you chose the wrong country.

Who decided it was OK to seize yachts?

they are not advertisements they are messages recognising contributions recognising channel sponsors many you tube creators accept paid promotions
It was a sponsored advert, they are indicated at the beginning of the video.
Fabulous.
What the heck is an esysman, sounds like a microsoft windows utility 😂
The Antiguan govt. Have a self imposed gag order to not talk about this sale of alfa nero
Why does the title seem off? Its feels like someone who doesn’t speak english wrote it haha
Why is Gates selling his new yacht?
Still the One I love immaculate heart of Christ
like him or not it is his yacht !
they did not have a problem before the war with his money or how he made the money !
i knew something like this would happen from the day one, people who are trying to buy these yachts are stupid !
you in your "discount yacht" what's this heavily armed people boarding the ship shooting and throwing moto's to the sea !
He was arrested before the Russian invasion of Ukraine and was under house arrest awaiting trial.
In Ukraine the US BILLIONS will just pay for another yacht
Really, who would be stupid enough to buy that yacht knowing the Russia's are trying to get it back.
Theresa ferry aground in south island of New Zealand
Scat 💩 That name stinks 😂
so will the figian navy pay for the destruction of the coral life and how long would that take to take to get payment
I would bet Billy Gates boat has the smallest crew quarters of any in history. He is a fanny
The Ruskie bots will be here soon.
Probably the security guys that run Putin's yacht.
