I've no idea how many live aboard "crew/friends, with benefits end their careers with a lot of money" there are. Superyacht owners are often in a position to tip crew very very generously for special contributions? to the "owners happiness" but are not always in position to allow discretions.

Arrest derives from the French word arrêt, which means to stop or to stay. It is therefore exactly the correct word for restraining a vessel and preventing it from travelling. It does not imply criminality, but usually involves a reasonable suspicion of criminality. It is only when an asset (such as a vessel) has been seized that the alleged criminality has been proven.

Just to increase the geek level further, mediaeval monks copying the bible endlessly developed a massive shorthand for all the common suffixes, and the circumflex ^ was one, a hidden "s". Another's the ampersand &, a stylised "et". Most died out with latin, though - if you were to do the same today, "-tion" would be a candidate. "con-" as well.

Thank you for your videos and constant updates. As a professional in the industry I can tell you that we are stepping into uncharted territory and quite interesting times. In the last year it was quite difficult for someone to buy a yacht and prices have been skyrocketing. We really don’t know what the immediate future of these ceased or arrested yachts will be. It is quite uncertain at the moment. You are absolutely right on saying that the industry will certainly be turned on its head. Keep the good work.

Regarding "arresting" a vessel: I have heard you explain this terminology many times (as you have said); ignore those who believe they know more about your area of expertise than you do. Keep using the correct terminology and keep up the terrific reporting.

You can still think of it exactly like you would a person: Arrest is legally constrained, a person gets thrown in the pokie awaiting bail, trial or pardon. An arrested ship can't leave or go anywhere pending whatever action - be it payment of a fine (bail) or clearing up whatever legal action (trial or pardon) got it arrested in the first place.

Funniest one was the harbourmaster in Valencia. We'd had a consignment of orange juice on a ship which got into difficulties and was salvaged. About the first job I had was to sort out the mess, easy, the juice was now the property of the salvagers, I got a new shipment on its way and claimed the insurance. A couple of years later, I'm clearing my desk in a move to Group HQ, the phone goes. "This is the Harbourmaster in Valencia. We have a pile of boxes on the quayside, with your name on, and the boxes, they go POP. The smell is terrible. What you gonna do?" My reply was terse, "They're not ours, speak to the salvagers." "We don't know nothing about that." "Not my problem." "We'll bulldoze them into the harbour, then." "Be my guest, like I said, nothing to do with us." A few years went past, and a colleague who makes the juice reported back. The colder seawater had stabilised the fermentation at a much lower level, so every couple of months, a can blows, and the port is fumigated. There's a couple of thousand cans there. Spain has its own Beaufort Trench (that's the deep spot off Stranraer where they dumped the surplus munitions after WW2. The UK Government recently wanted to put a Chunnel through there, and that stopped it.)

It's just been made worse by P&O dumping nearly 1000 ferry crew, illegally, for cheaper foreign agency workers, having committed no end of other crimes along the way. The reaction's expanding into a wider classification of oligarchs than just Russian ones. In practical terms, those with a Services background will always find a berth, you just have to look at the courses around Hereford, Poole and Plymouth to see that. For the rest, the loss of so many truck drivers has created a deficit of around half a million jobs which can't be filled. The UK DVLA isn't helping, as they've dug a hole and are happy in it, but other nations' testing is still recognised, you'd have to research which. That gives time for Swansea to get their act together or a new government to get a grip (neither the Transport Minister nor Prime Minister having any understanding of the concept).

You do this very well, good speaker and super interesting content. Thank you for tracking all these yachts and bringing me into this facinating world I know nothing about!

Outstanding video, very nice job!!

I feel for the crews

I'm only sad for the ordinary crew who are now looking for work but they likely knew who they were signing on to work for well enough.

Thank you for keeping track. GOOD TO KNOW. I hope this adds pressure.

Marine model maker. We made models of 2 of the yachts mentioned in this video.

Excellent, timely content drawing non-seafarers (like me)…. perhaps encapsulate seize vs. arrest explanation @1:40 in descriptions, or as first (preemptive) comment.

It frequently isn't poor but honest, rather poor because honest.

What are those six vertical stacks on top of Crescent? I saw a similar set, same configuration, but set at a slight outward angle, on another yacht. They're probably completely innocent, but they certainly do look like part of some sort of defensive system.

Thank you for your updates ! I think every Ukrainian deserve a free holiday in these superyachts.

Thanks for the update.

I like that people don't know what the word 'arrest' even means. you can arrest a person, you can arrest a vehicle, you can arrest a fall and you can even have arrested development. I wonder if these self-proclaimed grammar experts realize that there are 'arrestor cables' on aircraft carriers to arrest the horizontal velocity of landing aircraft. An arrest is just to bring something to a complete and total stop; what most people think of as a legal arrest is actually incarceration, the arrest is just when the officer cuffs you or otherwise apprehends to bring in. The version of incarceration for property is impoundment; and since they are not moving the yachts somewhere else and kicking the crew off, it's only an arrest. Seizing means that the owners have permanently lost ownership of property, legally speaking. you also have detainment, which is temporary and doesn't involve an arrest in and of itself. IE if a police officer stops you for speeding, it's a detainment. If you flip them the bird and refuse to provide licence and registration, you will then be arrested, and likely incarcerated until a bail hearing. Legalese, yeah!

Great points, but to clarify, a person can be arrested as the person is a vessel for the soul, persons have berth/birth certificates as they come ashore from the waters of their mother's womb and are registered on land. Legalese is a fun subject to study and you find so many interesting facts that have been contorted and diluted over the years. It is isnteresting to see most country's laws are based on Admiralty Law, with slight changes in definition and or spelling (ie; birth/berth) which is why all the similarities cause confusion to those who are ignorant of Law.

Nope, we use the word "DETAINED" - But then I don't live in Europe or UK so I wouldn't know how their English works over there. Incarceration means confine to prison not jail. When you are arrested you go to jail. When you are incarcerated you don't go to jail, you go to prison. Incarceration are long sentences. Jail are short term - you could be in jail for 6 months after a light sentencing so there is some overlap here. Usually when you are arrested, you are suspected/charged with a crime. When you are detained you are held for questioning since the authorities are not sure if you are the culprit. From what I can tell, when you are under sanctions list, you are barred from doing business, no Interpol arrest warrants have been made to put these Oligarchs in custody so they the owners themselves are not being arrested then these boats should be detained base on sanctions. That is why the word arrested being use here is bit weird - but then most of us arnt in this industries so maybe using the word arrested is applicable here - but it is not base on the way you are defining it.

By the way, did you see a short segment at MSNBC last night, Tuesday? It was about the yacht which is believed to be owned by the leader of Russia.

Amazing info and clear definitions. Thank you. Are you keeping track of yachts "arrested" vs. "seized" and if/when ships move between the lists? I suspect that some are first detained as Arrested while the management companies confirm ownership, and then they may become Seized. And sanctioned ships are now very likely sailing without insurance/certification. No port authority is going to allow them to dock. They'll be stranded at sea out of fuel dead in the water, unless they can get to a 'friendly' jurisdiction.

Thank you sir. Stay safe and healthy!

Never watched any videos regarding yachts before but I’m finding these really interesting. Thank you.

AWSOME they need to keep seizing these super yachts ‼️‼️🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦

Real questions : how does this play out ? Will the owners of these boats figure out a way to save or make money off this ? Not likely these could be sold off. Who would be crazy enough to buy a ship taken from an angry billionaire ?

How it usually plays out is the vessels are usually sold, either for the scrap price or to someone interested who can pay the asking price. The money generated would then go to buying weapons and ammo to help Ukraine fight the Russians.

They should find better people to for. Most of these owners are crooks. They just pay part of certain governments to cover up what these owners do and how they do it. Don't work for them.

So if we play this scenario out a bit. They stay on the bad list and the boats remain under arrest etc, what happens with them in a year for example? Are they sold, scrapped etc? Do the countries pay for the arrest / seizure? For example to the marina or boat yard for storage? I assume fuel and or power is needed for them, or there is a potential they could sink etc?

Great info. Thank you for all your hard work.

I just found this and I really am learning a lot PLUS I get to see the land I wouldn't have ever seen before. It really is interesting. Thanks 😊

Just a quick heads up, there’s problems with the “arrest warrant” of all these vessels... Exactly the same mistakes have been made as the fiasco surrounding the seizure of the motor tanker “grace”🤦‍♂️ Technically these super yachts have been seized under commercial law control orders (which are supposed to be used ashore) Not a single warrant has been signed by a admiralty court! Not a single one! Nor where they properly served on the vessels by “admiralty marshals” which means not one of them is valid... and worse those officials who failed to execute their duties professionally are now on the hook for firstly a criminal offence and secondly the financial liability of unlawfully detaining a vessel... Which will run into many many millions of dollars. I am a admiralty marshals have been for 25 years never seen such a screw up like this though. The boat owners are likely rubbing their hands in glee right now....

@@waitaminute2015 yes, maritime law is very specific and the oldest established law system on the planet, the consequences for nation states breaching those rules is potentially catastrophic, especially if the aggrieved states pursue what is termed “satisfaction of lien” from the aggressor nation... So in this particular case Russia has a claim it can bring against the western powers and if a Russian admiralty court signs orders any and all western owned/operated vessels merchant or private can be “legally detained with force” in Eurasia waters in leu of “satisfaction of lien” Now that as anyone in the shipping industry knows would be a very very serious problem, and could potentially cause massive shortages of goods and resources in the west as well as inflation that would tear your face off!

Is repossession of stolen property really theft? I suppose it’s a sort of re-stealing of stolen goods. You can’t seriously feel bad for oligarchs in a country that is as poor as Russia. In 2015 the average Russian family had total assets of $850 that’s lower than the average in India. The oligarchs are garbage.
