re: #272 Ming5000

I cannot find it now, but yesterday I read that “seizing the yachts” is a misnomer in some cases. In Italy and France they just told the boat to get the hell out.
The story noted that actually taking over a super yacht is a huge headache and expensive. Not to mention, the paperwork.

Ukrainian sailor in Majorca tried to sink yacht of Russian boss

The 48m (157ft) Lady Anastasia, which belongs to Rosoboronexport director general Alexander Mikheev, was docked in Majorca in Spain when the mechanic opened valves in its engine room.

He was arrested by Civil Guard officers on Saturday and later released on bail.
