    Episode 70 SY News
    On 24th Feb the vessel changed hands, why does that date sound familiar, because it’s the date of the Russian invasion of Ukraine
    According to the Guardian newspaper On 24 February, ownership of the yacht passed from a company previously controlled by Abramovich to a close associate of his, the Russian businessman David Davidovich.
    Davidovich told the Guardian that he was the owner of Aquamarine as well as the Jersey-domiciled company MHC Jersey Ltd, which is registered as the owner of the yacht on the maritime database MarineTraffic.
    “I can confirm that I am the owner of MHC Jersey Ltd and the Aquamarine yacht,” Davidovich said in a written statement.

    I am glad you mentioned the (literally stolen) Airplanes. I was following that story before I found and started watching your channel. It is not just a few hundred planes though, it is over 600 planes (about 2/3 of the commercially owned planes in the country). The leasing companies did not abandon the planes. They asked for them back and Russia refused. I think maybe a couple planes were stopped at international airports. After that they started only flying planes they owned outright internationally and blocked any attempts at recovery. Another point about the Airplanes is that Russia cannot buy replacement parts for any of those planes. And with tight maintenance regulations in aviation, if they use anything but approved parts on the planes, they become effectively worthless as the airworthiness of the plane cannot be guaranteed. The only short term solution is grounding some planes and cannibalizing them for parts. But even this is not a long term solution. And there is no way they will be able to lease any planes again.
    Apparently leasing planes is common practice in the Airline industry due to the high cost of new planes. Russia really is shooting itself in the foot with its actions as it is unlikely that any companies with lease them planes after this. I guess oligarchs should get into the domestic plane leasing business since they can't spend any money on their SuperYachts.

    There's great coverage of the airliner issues on the MentourPilot youtube channel. Many problems similar to the yachts with registration and insurance. It's also interesting because they can't get proper parts for them... As soon as they start putting non-certified parts in them they're completely worthless as they can't be certified airworthy (internationally) ever again. Also, this action means that no Russian airline company is likely to be able to lease planes again for a very long time. No matter what happens with Ukraine, Russian civilian aviation is screwed.

Oh, it may annoy them, but they’ll have significant assets in the US. Th Russian oligarchs, have been investing rather heavily in foreign (ie - not Russian) businesses, making them especially vulnerable to the tactic of freezing assets. Which is like three orders of stupid on their part, but if you want to control your people, you might not want your people to be rich, so perhaps investing their money locally might not have rated highly for them?

    I don't buy that any yacht of any size is "incognito" or "low profile". There must be deeper meanings behind owning so many vessels. Some meaning that requires a certain opulence and stature in its dealings. The obvious question is why does Abramovich feel the need to be so secretive? I do not accept that such behavior, owning six yachts is for "security" purposes.

So, there will be all sorts of lawsuits.

    The thing with the Planes is, even when they would get them back they might be worthless. Because of sanctions they don't get spare parts, so the required manufacturer-specific maintenance is no longer possible. If this isn't done and protocoled correctly you won't get them international licensed. They could fly domestic but they would have to take apart half of the fleet to supply parts for the rest and I don't think this works at least not for long before such "Frankenstein-Plane" falls from the Russian sky. They have to get their Antonows, Ilyushin's und Tupolew's back.

      The russian theft of leased aircraft has been well covered in aviation news. All those planes have also been decertified, which means they can’t be flown anywhere out of russian airspace. Plus, they have no access to spare parts (they’re mostly Boeing) so the only source is to cannibalize other aircraft. This is typical of russian mentality. At the end of WW2, the russians swept into Germany and cleaned out all the machinery from the factories and left everything unprotected at side of the railroad tracks. Trains were supposed to come by and transport to russia. Trains never came, all the machinery rusted and became useless. During the Bolshevik revolution, they took over the steel factories in the Urals. The managers that knew how to keep them running were eliminated, the workers had no clue, furnaces were allowed to be shutdown, molten steel hardened, goodbye steel industry. Very depressing.

    an addendum: As to coming to Australia, that's just asking for trouble, Australia supports Ukraine in her struggle, so any Russian owned vessel is really putting themselves in harms way, especially a super yacht owned by a close supporter of Vladimir Putin.

      The only way to really get at these oligarchs is to get at ther funds in the tax havens very difficult though.

    Not to mention that the oligarchs whose yachts are being seized can hardly be said to have earned the billions from honest labour!
    Thank you for the video.

    All superyachts owned by Russian oligarchs that have made it to safe harbors (Vladivostok, etc.) beyond the reach of seizures should become targets for underwater demolition teams. Great training exercises for the SAS, Seals, and other specialized services.

      As much as I appreciate the sentiment, that's not a valid target. But good luck enjoying that yacht in frozen land.

      @@donh8833 Enjoy it in "frozen land"? Uh Donnie, yachts are usually found on water, not land. That said, I'd rather enjoy oligarchs' yachts knowing they are in Davy Jones Locker.
