this is super yacht news with eSysman
hi welcome back to the channel okay so we've got some more news about
Mr. Sullivan Kerimov now he is the was the alleged owner of motor yacht Amadea obviously that whole
court case was about the fact that he owned it the U.S. government says he owns it he denied that
and that we know what's happened there right the boat is now flying a U.S. flag and it's sitting in
San Diego but the U.S. government it seems are not done with Mr Kerimov and they have frozen
a trust a U.S. based trust called the heritage trust based in Delaware and they've frozen this
trust because they say that it belongs to him and as of the 30th of June the heritage trust
held assets valued at over 1 billion u.s dollars so this action this is right from the
U.S. government website the U.S. department of the treasury or U.S. department of the treasury
and it says that the action ensures that the assets remain blocked and
inaccessible to Mr. Kerimov so he's having a hard time with it right now as nick
Mr. Kerimov because he's got his his vessel has been taken or it's a legend vessel he's also
in trouble in the UK because he's got a situation going on with a massive house in London which is
under investigation also and he is now he's had his trust- this trust in the US the heritage trust
based in Delaware um and that's been frozen as well now obviously Sullivan Kerimov is a
Russian billionaire he has various different companies i think he has a one of the things
he owns is a bank a Russian state bank also he has a gold company as well but there's a lot of
comments that say that and why is the government attacking private citizens and stuff like that
but in this particular case he is not a private assistant he is a member of the federation council
of the federal assembly of the Russian federation so he is that's the upper parliament in Russia so
he's a member of their parliament so he's not in this particular case a private citizen he also
i also have a source that tells me he's actually has a new boat that's in build right now in Europe
now i have i think i know which country it's in i don't want to say it because
i don't want to because i'm not sure i can't verify it but a European country right now is
building a new boat for Mr. Kerimov so if you have got any information on that
please get in touch through the normal methods which i'll talk about at the end of the video
okay so one correction from yet from the last video well not yesterday but the last 2-piece
news video i said that Sheikh Monsoor was from Saudi Arabia and he is of course from the United
Arab Emirates i did actually put a pin comment in that video after it had gone live i should have
checked it before it went live but i didn't so i apologies for that but obviously nobody reads
those pin comments because i had like 50 people telling me that it was wrong some emails as well
and stuff like that but yeah apologies for that he's from the United Arab Emirates of course on to
the next story so the Bezos yacht that we talked about in the last story as well i said it was in
the Blasterdam location but it is currently at this other place which i'm going to put on
screen because i'm not sure how to pronounce it i think it's zveindirect but i'm not sure
so the boat it's just down the river from the Alblasterdam facility that so
"Oceanco" has 2 facilities in that very close to each other now the mast for that yacht the sailing
-because it's a sailing yacht -those masts are Alblasterdam facility apparently in a car park
laying in the car park obviously not on the floor but on some sort of unit to hold them in place
but so the stuff is separate right now so i would imagine they'll take them down river
at some point under that bridge and then put them together and make them together at the other end
while we're talking about "Oceanco" and large yachts that yacht Bezo's yacht is called Y721
and that's just the shipyard's build number now Y720 is also at the Alblasterdam facility being
outfitted right now -now there has been a lot of talk online about who this yacht belongs to
and officially it hasn't been announced but not that i'm aware of anyway
it's a 109 meter or 357 foot super yacht it's a motor yacht ,not a sailing yacht and it's
interesting design actually - unfortunately i had a chap sent me some photographs of this boat
when he was walking his dog a couple of months ago and i never used the photos and i cannot for the
life of me, find the person's name or the photo so if you're watching you were out walking your
dog you took some pictures of a yacht and sent them to me - and i told you that whose boat it
was at the time but if you could send me those photographs again i would really appreciate it
anyway so the owner is Stephen "you're gonna need a bigger boat" Spielberg
i made some videos in Genoa a year ago two years ago about
his current bows which is now sold and that's called m/y seven seas now he sold that vessel
in October last year to and the name of it changed to "Man of Steel" now at the time i was curious who
would call a boat man of steel right some super superman aficionado but it turned out to be a
Canadian called Barry Zulkerman who's a steel manufacturer in Canada so but he hasn't he made
an unfortunate error at the time it wasn't but now that there's wars going on everything you know
the you see all these Russian tanks with the zed written on them well he's his logo for that vessel
is like a superman thing but with a zed in it but for his last name obviously but it's unfortunate
right now with everything that's going on another interesting fact about this is that Steven
Spielberg when he hired his entire crew from seven seas and he moved them all to his new boat
and that's very unusual they ordinarily when a boat is built by an owner who's got a current
boat he he hires a new crew and and sometimes he will take people across but not the entire crew
they all left at once had a big party in Italy and then they left and then i think the captain stayed
because the boat was in the in a dry dock and then he got the boat back in the water and then
he left also but it was really interesting that he obviously he liked his crew and he took the
entire crew with him even though the boat wasn't not ready to take that entire crew at the time
it was still in in build in the Netherlands but that was a great story and obviously he
appreciates his crew which is nice to hear so yeah so that boat will it's been on sea trials and it's
there for outfitting now which could mean a lot of things but the boat is out of the shipyard
and it's it's a docked alongside and they're finishing off getting it ready for delivery
so that's uh yeah that's an interesting story so we've got one last story today this is about uh a
boat called motoryacht Kahu it's a 36 meter or 120 foot yacht it's not a super yacht it's a luxury
yacht let's say and in episode 34 of superyacht news i did a video about this was september 2021
and i did a story about a boat that was found with 2 ,000 kilos or 2 tons of cocaine i think
it was on board 2 ,000 tons of drugs anyway the vessel was seized by the UK authorities
in the channel isles i believe it was and the vessel was seized and all of the you know everyone
went to prison and all that stuff and at the end of that they said that the vessel was going to be
auctioned off so the vessel was seized because it was used in crime and the vessel was was sold off
and and it's just been sold now so the auctions was done by "Wilson's Auctions" which is in the UK
and interestingly they did it online and you had to pay a 1,000£ just to even
to watch the auction you know to be involved in the auction online it's a 24-hour auction they
had bidders from all over the world now what's interesting about this boat it was built in 1979
and it was built for the New Zealand navy and then later on it was converted into a yacht so
some of the bidders were from New Zealand so that was interesting- U.S. New Zealand UK
and Europe were bidding on it anyway the vessel sold for 473,500 £ so that's a good end to that
story hopefully it will go to someone who's gonna look after it now and not use it for drug running
if you bought that boat and you watched the channel please get in touch i would love to see
i'd love to hear more about the boat what it's going to be used for but yeah if you know any
information about that if you're the new owner congratulations and yeah get in touch it would
