one of the interesting consequences of the war in the Ukraine is the theater
going on with the superyachts of the Russian oligarchs. They have been impounded, they have raced out in the middle
of the night (Putin's yacht) to safe ports, they are tracked obsessively by lots of folks all over the world.
They turn off their AIS transponders frequently to not be tracked.
probably the best YT channel who stays on top of this is this guy, who I have watched for several years.
his videos of ships in the world's fanciest harbors like Monaco are fun to watch.
but you likely need to be into boats.
I think several of these huge yachts (300-450 feet long) have been impounded, several up for sale.
Some just go from foreign port to foreign port. I like the fact Putin's yacht has a drone jammer.
have to wonder what that does to the captain's bridge instruments...
old Amish saying of when you lay with dogs you get fleas
these oligarchs all have a lot of fleas on them
they would say this is our system, have to play the game
it always gets back to greed.
Anyone who has a 450 foot yacht is all about ego.
just like the alpha silverback gorilla pounding on his chest
I always liked the mafia approach. Be very quiet, speak softly, carry a big stick/persuader.
Except for Gotti, few liked the limelight. Russian oligarchs really like their flashy things.
of course look at our US tech billionaires; some of them have multiple huge yachts.
as a boater, who like most has had twofootitis, going larger is usually a good thing.
146 trillion dollars a year of world gnp; lot of opportunity for folks to get very wealthy
I guess if they sign up for this, they should have whatever size boat they want...
note the countries involved, or not
