The largest yacht in the world was arrested for debts. The owner of the arrest of the white-white eight-alup is Russian Oligarch, the founder of the MDM Bank, the owner of the three Krasnoyarsk CHP and the largest producer of coal producer - the company "SUEK" Andrei Melnichenko.

"Hundreds of people are amazed by the view and dimensions of a giant yacht, which entered the Gibraltar Strait"- wrote foreign media a week ago. After a couple of days, the yacht "A", which really resembles a military cruiser than a cruise ship, again fleeing in the news.

The largest yacht in the world - decoration of the Luxury class cruise ship collection belonging to the 44-year-old oligarch Andrei Melnichenkowhose assets include EuroChem (90% of shares), Siberian Coal Energy Company (SUEK, 92%), Siberian Generating Company (SGK LLC, 92%), and the state is estimated at $ 13.4 billion (this is 11 - a place in the Russian list and 139th place in the world ranking of Forbes billionaires).

On February 5, the yacht "A" came out of the port of Kiel in Germany and headed to Spain, where finishing works, running and delivery tests should be held. However, from February 18, the yacht is under the control of Gibraltar's Admiralty, where Sailing Yacht A entered the refueling. The claim submitted shipyard Nobiskrug. German shipbuilders declare that 9.8 million euros of the final contribution from the customer were not paid, as well as 2.6 and 2.9 million euros are not paid to subcontractors. Valla Yachts Limited's total debt, through which Melnichenko entered, thus reaches 15.3 million euros. Make money, according to the contract, it was necessary until January 27.

2008 yacht "A" 2008 also developed for Andrei Melnichenko Philip Starck

The biggest yacht in the world

Sailing yacht and costs about 400 million dollars, its design developed the famous (almost legendary) French Philip Stark. The construction of the vessel took four years.

Until now, the largest yachts were considered EOS (93 m) and Maltese Falcon (88 m), however, the creation of Philip Stark and German shipbuilders established a new record, both in size and technical equipment of the vessel. The length of the yacht "A" is 142.5 meters, the width is 25 m, the total area of \u200b\u200bthe sails is 3,700 square meters. meters (this is half a football field), the height of three masts from carbon fiber is 91 meters. Inside one of these masts there is a room to which a screw staircase leads. However, to raise the sail, you do not need to climb up - for this there is a special button. But the sails are not always needed: two powerful diesel engines and two electric motors are installed on the ship. And the captain is not worth the steering wheel, but manages the yacht using the touch panel. By the way, some innovative technologies designed specifically for the yacht "A" can be licensed - this will help partially compensate for the cost of its design and construction.

"A", named as expected, in honor of the wife of the oligarch - the former Serbian model Alexandra (Sandra) Nicolichmay take on board up to 20 guests. To their services - a spa club, a beach with three pools, a garage for four cars (if you need to go to the land) and a submarine for marine warriors. A special room equipped in the lower deck allows you to monitor the life of sea depths through the panoramic chamber, and one of the decks is assigned to the helicopter platform. 1300 trunks of expensive teak tree took to finish the yacht.

2008 yacht "A" 2008 is the most attractive and repulsive ship in the world, WSJ.com believes

"Unpleasant Episode"

So regard the situation with the yacht "A" lawyers Andrei Melnichenko, who are confident that the arrest from the vessel will be removed within a few days. The question of non-payment falls under arbitration on the territory of the UK, where it will be considered (the port of the "A" port is Hamilton on the Bermuda). At the same time, representatives of the oligarch declare that they are amazed by the actions of Nobiskrug: some questions with veffa really remained unhealthy, but no one shied away from their discussion. "We assumed that the case moves to the mutual agreement and sending the yacht to Spain"- lawyers comment. In particular, the representative of Andrei Melnichenko Alex Andreev Reported the media that funds, to the permission of the situation, translated into a special deposit account.

And 9, and even 15.3 million dollars with a total capital of 13 billion look frightly. But it may be that this is not the only duty associated with the yacht "A". Before you go to the Pyrenees, the ship went to the Norwegian port of Christiansssen for two days. Some commentators do not exclude that the route is specifically laid in such a way as to "save" on the way of 70 million VAT. The yacht made in Germany for the foreign customer is subject to taxation in the country of operation. This rule was introduced by the German financial service to avoid double taxation. Condition - the country of operation should not be a member of the EU, Norway is quite suitable for this. To get exemption from the payment of VAT in Germany, only Norwegian signatures and seals are needed confirming the stay in the kingdom.

"The manufacturer in this case indicates the price of the price without VAT and notes the export delivery"- explained in the Ministry of Finance of Germany. The risk for the manufacturer lies in the fact that the customer subsequently may simply "forget" get the necessary paper. The seller in this case may require VAT payments from the buyer, and then after presenting export documents to compensate VAT.

The conditions on which the Nobiskrug yacht "A" was acquired, not disclosed. If we proceed from the cost of 400 million euros, the VAT may be approximately 70 million. Representatives of Andrei Melnichenko declare that all the necessary tax liabilities are performed, the shipyard does not comment on the shipyard. Therefore, the version put forward by Dagens Naerisliv that the vessel's occurrence to Norway is associated with the reimbursement of VAT, it remains only one of many.

One of the domestic businessmen belonging to the Forbes list became the owner of the largest yacht in the world. Superchildly called Dilbar in its displacement exceeds the size of the flagship of the Black Sea Fleet - Moskaya Rocket Cruiser.

The shipbuilding shipyard from Germany Lurssen confirmed that the gross capacity of the 156-meter Dilbar superjoint, which belongs to the Oligarch, which is included in the three businessmen of the Russian List of Forbes, is 15917 tons. This is reported by the specialized West Edition Yacht Harbor. For comparison, displacement of the Guards Rocket Cruiser "Moscow" - 11490 tons.

It turns out that Dilbar is currently the most spacious private yacht in the world. In the second and third places, the Al Said Super Sultan (15850 tons) and the Yacht Emir Abu Dhabi Azzam (13136 tons).

Dilbar power supply - diesel-electric, and it makes it possible to develop a yacht speed in 22.5 marine nodes, which exceeds 41 kilometers per hour. The vessel body is made of steel, and the superstructure is from aluminum. 3800 square meters - the total area of \u200b\u200bthe ship's premises. The length of the wiring of the vessel exceeds 1100 kilometers, which is approximately equivalent to the distance from Moscow to the Crimea. On the yacht there are also two helicopter platforms, as well as a huge swimming pool, accommodating 180 cubic meters of water.

Superman's construction lasted for more than 4 years. The price of the yacht is not disclosed, but experts assess its value in the amount of $ 600 million.

By the way, our wealthy compatriots own almost every fifth luxury yacht of all, furrowing expanses of the oceans. According to the estimates of one of the Western specialized publications, six months ago, the Russians belonged 18 out of 101 Supersudna, whose owners are publicly published. This in December 2015 was written by the British newspaper The Times, which referred to the calculation conducted by the BOAT INTERNATIONAL.

So, half a year ago, the citizens of our country belonged 18 out of 101 Supersudna, whose owners are known. In second place in this luxury hit, US citizens were located, they owned 16 such floats. In third place - Saudites, in the property of which were 10 super hotels. In the fourth place of the Greeks (6 yachts), on the fifth - Dubai (5 yachts).

The issued emirate Abu Dhabi belonged to 4 yachts, as well as the subjects of Qatar. The Ukrainians still owned 3 yachts in the winter, the Hindus - as much as Oman's subjects owned two such luxurious plaques. Such super hotuytes are designed for long-term cruises over long distances in remote parts of the planet and are capable of walking in the most difficult conditions.

The main flags of registration superjoint are the Cayman Islands, Bermuda and the British Virgin Islands (BVO), told the "Russian newspaper" Partner Paragon Advice Group, lawyer-international Alexander Zakharov. Moreover, the registration of the vessel in the first two jurisdictions is similar to the registration itself in the UK. But if in the UK actually the registration fee for the design of the yacht is very large, then at the British Islands of the Caribbean, the cost of registration and content of the yacht is comparable to the registration and content of an expensive luxury car, said expert.

"As a rule, foreigners register their luxurious plaques on transparent structures, without hiding themselves. In such structures, the shareholder is visible. And Russian businessmen are not an exception. The transparency of ownership of such yachts by Russians is due to the restrictions on the responsibility of the owner for the board. This is done in order to be clear Who asking in case such a yacht becomes a participant in the maritime incident, for example, she will rapate the Seiner, "says Alexander Zakharov.

At the same time, the ability to preserve anonymity for Russian oligarchs exist, and they willingly use them. "When registering on Caymans, BVI and Bermuda, this can be done in two ways: either the design of the company's shares, which owns the vessel, on the trust, or through the use of nominal owners," the expert knows.

According to him, since the registration of the yacht occurs through the establishment of a corporate structure (for example, a trust) on these Caribbean Islands, this may lead to Russian taxpayers to notify the Russian tax service within the framework of disclosure of information on controlled foreign companies. "However, such a duty will not arise with the loss of the Russian status of the tax resident in Russia," the interlocutor summarizes.

She will become the largest sailing ship

Russian magnate Andrei Melnichenko, known for his addiction to expensive floating toys, will soon be able to enjoy the new acquisition. A billionaire sailing yacht, whose running tests begin in Germany will become the largest vessel in their class and, probably, the most expensive.

The fact that the fruit of the design of the Filip Philip Stark is worth about 400 million euros is preparing to go to test swimming from the German city of Kiel, reports the British newspaper Daily Mail.


According to media reports, an eight-phase vessel has a width of 25 meters and a length of 143 m meters. The crew will be 50 people. Three masts from carbon will be launched on the yacht with a height of more than 100 m. The area of \u200b\u200bthe largest sail will be 1767 square meters. Passengers, among other things, will be able to observe the underwater world through the transparent underwater section of the case.


For a comparison, which became known in connection with the wedding of the Kremlin Sovlinov, Dmitry Peskov, has a length of only 88 meters.


The fact that Andrei Melnichenko ordered the construction of the largest sailing vessel in the world, it became known in July. The yacht was built on the shipyard of the shipbuilding company Nobiskrug in. She was named "Sailing Yacht A". Melnichenko already has a megayacht called "A", but it is not sailing, but a motor. The creation of both yachts Melnichenko attracted the famous Philip Designer Stark.

This is already the second yacht of the oligarch: the businessman also owns a motor yacht "A", lowered in the summer of 2008 after four years of construction. They say that both yachts with a literary "A" are named after the spouse of Alexandra.

The detention of a new yacht, which came to Gibraltar to complete finishing works, are associated with the suit of its manufacturer - the German company Nobiskrug, whose lawyers filed a lawsuit for violation of the contract. It is argued that the customer - Valla Yachts Limited - did not transfer the latest payment of 9.8 million euros on time. Also, shipbuilders have other claims in connection with the debts on subcontracting accounts, and their total amount is 15.3 million euros.

A 44-year-old owner has two times for pride: his wife and yachts. In 2005, the Russian oligarch married the former Miss Yugoslavia, the Serbian top model Alexander Nikolich, the wedding with which he cost $ 40 million in this way, when three years later, in 2008, Melnichenko built a new yacht worth $ 320 million. He had no shadow of doubt what the name would give the ship. He called the yacht briefly and concise, in honor of his beloved wife (well, a little in honor of himself): "A". Since then, the sudine is considered one of the most famous and luxurious on the planet ...

Considering an unusual ship, Londoners took pictures on his background and published frames in social networks. Snapshots "A", cruising along the main river of the British capital, bypassed the English media. "Dozens of thousands of vessels passed under the Tower Bridge, but few of them were such large and luxurious as it," writes Daily Mail. Megayakhtu "A" was designed by the famous French designer Philip Stark, and built it on the Hamburg shipyard Blohm + Voss. The length of the vessel is 119 meters. The design of the yacht, caused a variety of opinions. The yacht is compared with submarines and military ships, and the journalists agreed that "this is the most attractive and repulsive ship in the world."
