this is super yacht news with eSysman
hi welcome back to the Channel all right so we've got an update on the yacht
007 this vessel as you'll remember capsized in a bay in the Greek island after apparently running
aground before that The Story Goes that the vessel hit rocks started to take on water and the vessel
then beached onto that beach there so the vessel uh is owned by a Swiss businessman millionaire
his name is Sammy Taman and he was also the captain apparently which is very unusual it's
not unheard of but it is unusual The Vessel was in a shipyard in turkey called Atlas Shipyard
for over four months and this was after the vessel sustain the Cyclone damage
but sources close to the shipyard have told us of some strange issues with that vessel and the
apparently when the vessel left the shipyard after four months the it had lots of issues with it
including only having one working generator when there's usually three generators on board a vessel
no no working AC plus many other issues in the engine room apparently bilge pumps not working
in the engine room things like this The Vessel had a safety inspection carried out before the vessel
left the shipyard and based on the information what we were given about the problems with that
boat it seems very odd that that vessel would have been able to leave in that condition another thing
about it is is that according to the records The Vessel should have had a crew of five and
yet according to the sources close to that Shipyard there was only a crew of three plus
that owner captain and there was just three deckhands on board which is very unusual for
a vessel of 50 meters as we said in a previous video The Vessel was launched in 2006 at a 32
meter yacht and was extended twice and ended up at 49 meters uh sorry 32 meters is 105 feet and
49 meters is 160 feet so the the police report after the accident also corroborated the fact
that there was no not enough crew on board saying that there were only three decades on board and
the owner Captain so according to reports in the Press there was a GPS error which meant that the
captain believed the vessel was in a different position causing the issue I find that story to
be very strange I mean first of all the vessel will have multiple GPS units on board it should
have at least two GPS units also two Gyros so if you and also a professional Seafarer should not
need GPS to be able to tell where his position is so I just find that story a bit odd it could
just be that the Press who recorded reported it are not you know they don't really know
what they're talking about and they've sort of got the story rank I'm not sure no no official
reports has yet been released because it's going to probably take a year for that to happen
the vessel is still in that location hasn't been moved as far as we can tell we've got some footage
that you can see on screen right now this was from about a week ago and you can see the vessel still
lying on its side with the boom around it and that other vessel there that red and white vessel is
guarding because there was a lot of people crazy people climbing onto the vessel swimming around
it touching the the boom which is designed to protect people and the rest of the water
from pollution so that vessel is there to guard it and to make sure nobody else gets on board
but anyway as soon as we get an update on that story we'll bring it to you all right we'll move
on now to the next story as you know in the last video we talked about motor yacht Dilbar moving
from elb17 in Hamburg to the location in Bremen but according to uh sources including a website
here which I'll put on screen I'm not even going to try and pronounce it the vessel that's not the
final destination for the vessel apparently and the vessel will be moving again now the vessels
currently at the Lurssen facility in Veggiesack I believe you pronounce it however the boat is
going to be moving to Neudstat uh and it will eventually go on to Bernay which uh but are
both nursing facilities I think one of them's an old Blum and Vos facility and the one in
Bernay is has a place for long-term storage so I think that's where the vessel is going to end up
all right so updates on Legrand blue we mentioned that Le Grand blue had left
the port of Ponce in Puerto Rico it was probably leaving because of this tropical storm which had
turned into a hurricane well if you if you live on that side of the world I'm sure you'll know
about what happened there now with the category 4 hurricane heading on over the island and and a
lot of people had no power there for days well the vessel did Escape that went out into the
ocean halfway to Venezuela The Vessel is now back in this in that location I believe it had
a minimum crew on board when it's sailed out as well so yeah there were comments that they were
probably going to get fuel from Venezuela which is not impossible but I don't think that happened
and the bezel is now back in place where it was before the storm came and they and they
left and they've Switched Off Their AIS again now so yeah no AAS signal for the last two days
one comment I got on the story about Le Grand blue said that the Russian sanctioned yacht shouldn't
be in U.S territory well the owner Eugene schwidler he's sanctioned by the UK but he's
not actually under any sanctions by the U.S and that probably explains why his boat is still there
and why his boat hasn't been arrested because if he was sanctioned by the U.S then that boat would
be would be grabbed for sure wouldn't it okay one more story before we go and it's about motor yard
uh Pacific or Pacific X if you go by the AIS this vessel has been in marmorous for quite
a while now for a few months as most vessels of russian-owned Russian owners have been in Turkey
this vessel was in Costa Rica and disappeared off AIS going through the Caribbean and popped up in
turkey has been in turkey ever since since then changed the flag to Malaysia and the vessel has
been seen uh seemingly preparing to leave the the marina in marmos not quite sure where the vessel
is heading yet the owner of Pacific is Leonard Mickelson he's the CEO and major shareholder
of novatec a Russian gas company and it should be noted that he's not currently under any sanctions
as far as we can tell I'm gonna leave it there one other thing we've got a new channel uh I mentioned
