this is super yacht news with eSysman hi welcome back to the channel okay we've got a lot of stuff
to get through today so let's get right into it okay on my left hand side here you can see the
route that motor Nord is currently taking she's heading to Cape Town in South Africa and you
can see that she is currently heading to Singapore she'll be going through the Malacca Straits in the
next couple of days so if you're in that area keep an eye on it on marine traffic and you'll see here
appear in the trash terrestrial tracker soon and one other thing as well we were tracking Andromeda
she's been heading from Port Victoria in the Seychelles to Darwin in Australia yesterday at 11
30 in the evening UTC time she arrived in Darwin now the Vessel left Port Victoria on the 20th of
September and arrived in Darwin on the 22nd of October so that's one month and two days at sea
and she traveled a distance of 4 000 up to this approximate of course because we don't know the
exact route but four thousand five hundred and 34 nautical miles or 8,400 kilometers
now you might be asking what did that cost and this is what I was going back to saying that
it's very unlikely for a yacht to make a trip like this unless the owner or somebody who's going to
use that vessel because it costs so much to make these trips right well Andromeda has a range of 12
000 nautical miles or 12 knots the vessel can take 370 000 liters of fuel
and the way the the range has worked out is that after doing 12 000 miles you would have
approximately 10 percent of the fuel left in the tanks so that's 333 000 liters of fuel that would
cost at one part 1.40 per liter which is not the exact price I couldn't get the exact price but
that's a a an estimate of how much it costs per liter of marine fuel it would cost 466 200 to
fill the vessel but remember she has a range of 12 000 nautical miles she traveled 4534 nautical
miles which is approximately 38 of the 12 000 nautical mile range so the cost to get that
vessel down there would have been approximately 177 156 US dollars so quite an expensive affair
right all right so we'll move on in a previous video we talked about Alicia Usmanov's properties
in Turgenze in the Bavaria being raided by the German police or the German version of the FBI
that and they found for what they believed could be Faberge eggs in there well those Faberge eggs
were examined by experts and it actually turns out that they were not real so that was surprising to
me I figured somebody like somebody who's Worth 16 billion or whatever he's worth would not buy fake
fabric eggs but it turns out they were gifts that he was planning on giving to someone in Uzbekistan
and so they're not worth the 100 million dollars or so that we thought they might be having said
that they even though they are not Originals they are apparently still worth five figures so tens of
thousands of dollars still well quite interesting isn't it anyway we'll move on to the main story
and that is about a yacht this is a sailing yacht in a Norway that's being arrested there
called Firebird now the reason why the vessel has been arrested is because of the owner and
his name is Andre yakanin now he was arrested in Norway because he's been flying a drone in
around spalbard and possibly in other locations in Norway now since the 28th of February 2022
Russian flights have been banned from Norwegian airspace and this includes you know helicopters
aircraft and unmanned aerial vehicles now this is something weird going on in Norway right now with
the Russians because this is the fourth time in one week that somebody who is Russian has
been arrested for flying a drone in Norway and they're suspected of flying them in areas and
photographing classified areas of Norway now you will know there's been NATO exercises going on
in Norway recently as well so I don't know whether they're still going on but there have been there's
been a lot of interest around Norway when it comes to Russians for some reason now his his boat is
a 27 meter yacht named Firebird and it's still in Norway and the crew have also been detained
that and the yacht was also searched by authorities most likely looking for potential
footage of areas that they've been filming with this drone right now so who is Andre
yakinen now he is the son of Vladimir jakkanen who is a close Confidant of President Putin I
believe he's xkgb that the father he was also the president of Russian Railways in between
2005 and 2015. this is the father the 14th in 2014 sorry the USA government issued sanctions
against him freezing all of his assets in the U.S this was after the invasion of of Crimea
so the ban on flights that we talked about includes all flights like I said earlier including
drones operated by Russians now Mr Yakkinen has a British passport as well as a Russian passport
but that does not prevent him from being arrested because he's still got the Russian
citizenship the restricted area also includes the airspace over the Norwegian territorial Waters
so the sea area from the Norwegian Shoreline out to 12 nautical miles so Mr yakitan who like I
said owns dual citizenship he's in he's still he's in prison he's in a pre-tality pre-trial
detention for at least the next two weeks so we'll bring you more on that one we get it
one other thing a follow-up on another story that we mentioned recently it was about a vessel called
motiot Valerie which was arrested in Barcelona in March she's been there since March and
the vessel was arrested because it's owned or allegedly owned by Sergey chemazov the vessels
actually registered to his stepdaughter now what we said in the last video is that the the vessel
had changed names from Valerie to Meridian a now what was interesting about this name changes when
we checked on the IMO database the international Maritime organization database the name of the
vessel is still Valerie hasn't hasn't been updated we also used another database that we use which
which can be faster to be updated and that was also saying the name was still Valerie so I have
a feeling because the owner of the vessel is the the Russian chap I think the vessel's name has
been changed because it's it's being held by the Spanish authorities I think they've changed the
name just to take the heat off that vessel it has been changed on AIS it is broadcasting Meridian
a but as far as the IMO database goes it has not changed now what's interesting about this is that
the vessel has been moved recently from the mb92 shipyard where the vessel was being worked on when
she was arrested and it was moved to another area because mb92 wanted to use that facility for other
Yachts now we mentioned in the previous video that the Spanish government and the French government
were accepting payments from the owners of these vessels the vessels that supposedly been arrested
they were accepting payments from them to continue to pay for the upkeep of the vessels even though
they weren't allowed to use them or or sell them or move them or anywhere however Valerie's owner
stopped making payments as soon as the vessel was arrested so he hasn't made a single payment since
and that's why the vessel has been moved they're not getting any money the the shipyard is not has
not had any payments since the vessel was arrested now the the arrest was challenged by the by the
company that that formerly owns this vessel the company is called Solberg Services Limited now
they challenge the freezing and it's incredible the reason that they challenged it they argued
to the Spanish authorities that they could because they couldn't prove who owned the yacht that they
they couldn't seize it all right or freeze it and the Madrid Court obviously rejected that so
they're basically saying we've hidden that they own so well that you can't arrest it because you
don't know who it is so they have traced Solberg Services Limited back to the stepdaughter of Mr
chemisoff as I mentioned earlier I just wanted to mention to check out our patreon page we now have
