A luxury yacht belonging to Ukrainian oligarch Viktor Medvedchuk was officially transferred to the Ukrainian state on May 15, said Ukraine’s Agency for Investigation and Management of Assets, known by its Ukrainian acronym ARMA.
The Royal Romance, a 92-meter (300-foot) luxury yacht worth an estimated 200 million euros ($218 million), was seized by Croatian authorities in March 2022 in relation to EU sanctions imposed on Medvedchuk.
“This is a historic moment for our country,” said Shipping Administration head Yevhenii Ihnatenko.

Ihnatenko added that profits from the sale of the yacht would be directed to Ukraine’s state budget.
Now pack it full of explosives and drive it into the Kursk bridge
I wonder what the used super yacht market is like?
I don’t know if it’s getting better or worse, but those orcas sinking yachts in the straight of Gibraltar are definitely making an impact. Whether the lower supply raises prices or the orca attacks lead to less demand is to be determined.
I’m ready to be wrong but I do not think orcas are gonna hurt a 300ft megayacht
We just need 300 ft mega orcas
Finally, someone who thinks outside of the box!
See dude like there’s your problem, that’s how the man got. You got told there is a box. See that is what the man wants you to think. That is how they control you. You need to unlearn everything you know. Then dude you can see there is no box. The box is a lie, it is your prison. And dude you know who built your prison?.. You did dude and only you can tear it down. You feel me dude.
Now are you ready to do a thumb print. Dude it is the only way to break down those walls.
Maybe if we arm them?
The orcas seem to be only attacking much smaller boats, and only sailboats at that. Usually around 15 meter range. It seems to have something to do with the rudders too - they like ramming the rudders, and that’s where the boats sometimes start taking on water.
Can;t wait to see how many VLS fit in that baby!
Hopefully they can make use or get rid of it fast, as the upkeep with these superyachts can be ridiculously expensive, and if you slack on it, you’ll quickly end up with an even bigger repair bill or just a worthless pile of scrap.
The Amadea costs the US government almost $1 million a month for example.
Soon to be the Magura v5000
YES! This is AWESOME news!!!
Slava Ukraini!
Does this mean Ukraine now has a navy?
“Not my big boat penis!” yelled the oligarch who got tens of thousands of Russians killed by siphoning gas and stealing tank parts to sell on the black market to buy said boat penis (probably).
