[@MrReddog1961]

I have to come clean its my super yacht

[@jamesjoyce5611]

ed solicitor: no it is not, its your 2nd wifes' grandsons

[@Jedi.Toby.M]

Wait till you find out how much it costs to just turn that beast on😅

[@davidb9059]

My turtle 🐢 , that lives in Jersey 6 months a day of a year , owns that yacht part-time for a friend in Scotland. Thats all I will say . 🙃

[@Jedi.Toby.M]

@davidb9059 may I say, I'm very sorry to hear about your turtle having to live in Jersey....that Yhact is crazy, but if your turtle needs to talk, or a better place to live...this community is here for your poor turtle. No one, should have to live in Jersey. 🤣 🤣

[@1970pizza]

No , it's my yacht , my cat left it to me in her will lol

[@denniswheatley8201]

I was wondering where I parked that darn thing... LoL

[@seantwomey396]

I have no proof about who owns any of these yachts but the US government can only confiscate private property if a court orders it after proof beyond doubt of a violation of US law. The burden of proof is on the government just as it is in Cuba if they confiscate private property. You questioned the lawyer’s multiple responses about currency and ownership, but this is standard legalese. Lawyers say A is false but if you prove that A is true, then B is false. If B is true then C is false. This is to prove that the claimed owner is actually the owner in all cases. I agree that this may be a straw owner well hidden but the government must prove its suspicions. Throughout the world there are crooked governments who claim illegality in order to confiscate private property. The Western governments must all be held to an actual legal standard. This is why the UK seizure of Phi is so despicable as well.

[@calumshaw]

Does the US DOJ at any point, substantiate their reasoning behind their belief that Khudainatov doesn't own the 3 or 4 super yachts. I appreciate they've said he can't because he's not wealthy enough but opinion is not factual. It's all a bit like the fiasco surrounding Phi in Canary Wharf - (we think you're a naughty boy so we'll take your toys, but we can't prove anything)

[@brianp3717]

Agreed. No actual legal basis (at least for the American government) to seize assets from people just because they're Russian. Wholly unlawful, unconstitutional, politically motivated scam.

[@mikebergsma4493]

I ride by the Amadea yacht every day in my tender. Never gets old. Says “Fort Lauderdale” on the stern. (Edit spelling, added last sentence)

[@noelht1]

You are filming this from a far nicer place than where I am right now let me tell you that mate. The weather is also much nicer!

[@steveshoemaker6347]

Thanks again....My friend = Old F-4 2 Shoe🇺🇸

[@itsruf1]

My Sign Shop could make good $ on all these vessels. Just logos for lawyers, builders, shell companies, service industry, staffing agents... you name it. I vould live in the Maldives and make one logo per week. Drink the other days.

[@MichaelPetersFenwicks]

Cost prohibitive.......laughable that any government would attempt such an exercise.

[@greggreg2263]

If they want, they can put this yacht in my name. I’m from Canada. Everything will be OK.🤑✅😎🙌

[@jamesblankenship8108]

Good job.

[@uzithedreadpoet6777]

Another beautiful yacht. WOW Crescent, Amadea, Sheherezade, beautiful vessels...

[@ImTheDudeMan471]

Just so you know, the yacht wanted to be in America's Finest City, San Diego, because it's so nice. So take up all objections with the actual yacht... If you are going to be stuck somewhere, I vote to be stuck in San Diego.

[@benjaminmatheny6683]

I suspect that the lawyers who filed that motion should get sanctioned for lying to the court.

[@johngibson3837]

Nice looking trees in your background mate

[@petermercer5968]

The super yacht touchmeup is all mine.

[@bbqreunie984]

It should be forbidden, all these hiding constructions. If you hide this way your ship can be arrested or confiscated and sold again.

[@DannyKoKo]

Thanks for that

[@Arational]

Rock me Amadea

[@georgedoolittle7574]

I think there was a lizard walking behind you about halfway through give or take.

[@LloydBraun11]

It was only a bird, and it also completely denies it is under any assignment from Putin.

[@beepseatsfindingfoodtreasu8756]

He doesn't own them. At their christening he did say, "Float and be Free!!!" Doesn't that count?

[@wingedmonkeys548]

Dommage qu’il n’y est pas de sous-titre en français !

[@Seasonstobecheerful]

Oligarchs and their billion dollar flotillas never cease to entertain 😂

[@mikefitzpatrick6618]

No it's not it's mine

[@henryvanveen5365]

Nice boat will admit, but would never like to own a superyacht even if it was literally given to me. Maintenance, running the boat and mooring it would be my headache but would not mind a cruise on one

[@Kodakcompactdisc]

If you own one of these somebody else looks after all that, you just arrive and use it when you see fit.

[@magnusrockerman9276]

Thats none of your problems at all. You have a crew for that. Just pay the bills,salarys and enjoy the thing :)

[@JelMain]

There's certainly funny-money going on, as the transfer of assets within a Group can happen with the creation of an intercompany loan for the value, but only if both are entirely owned by the same holding company: otherwise differences in valuation must go to profits and be taxable.

[@madplanet3351]

I do hope Russia doesn't start seizing assets 😂.

[@Jedi.Toby.M]

They can, with my blessing...impound both of Jeff Bezos boats...I'm still mad about that new feature of ads on Amazon Prime Video... You have enough money...stop taking mine. 😂😅

[@daverosewell9991]

they have been since about 2008, just ask BP and other International Oil Companies that have had billions of assets seized. Has rapidly increased since Feb 2022

[@madplanet3351]

@@daverosewell9991 good

[@olasek7972]

Russia is weak, its failed state anyway, very weak Navy, no attractive destinations there to sail to, they aren’t in position to seize anything

[@MiguelCedenoLozano]

That's a sexy contemporary figurehead 👌🏽🦅

[@Kodakcompactdisc]

I’m surprised a lot of these russian super yachts don’t mysteriously sink.

[@davesy6969]

I am yachtacus.

[@shaunsandow2073]

The reasons why they took the yacht is that he is sanctioned…the other stuff is irrelevant

[@symbolsandsystems]

is it even possible for an owner of a super yacht to experience satisfaction?

[@johnmcdonald489]

It’s mine I’ll be over there in a bit to collect it.

[@jaswingrove]

where abouts are you ? looks familiar

[@Dannny_Mac]

❤

[@eddiemcfadden4386]

They lying

[@maclogan6872]

You seem very tired in this video. Thanks for putting the news out.

[@mcrick8931]

I always laugh when i here Under US law half a world away from the US

[@shaunsandow2073]

Owning Sherisade might shorten one’s life…it’s Putin’s boat but this guys on paper; but avoid tea if he gets annoyed

[@ricardoallende2597]

I question everything the DOJ says.

[@Kodakcompactdisc]

Ok donald.

[@chrish2685]

Love the channel,but why is nothing straight forward concerning ownership,financing etc of these vessels. Does corruption go hand in hand with being rich. In our world it is Log book,address and Loan

[@drhirsch7979]

Silenzky🎉

[@georgelatim8540]

Billion or million?

[@martinklanecky7281]

.

[@summerbreeze7066]

Lets put some homeless people there to stay awhile. Better then the cold. They can even bring them south for the winter lol

[@joshuadenman9977]

I own it.. problem solved

[@buckystarfinger2487]

The owner should hire Tucker to do a show like Putin did. Get the boat back no questions asked.

[@andrewwilks2700]

Nobody needs that many super yachts.

[@ElguapoDk]

Boring🥱

[@stiffler4774]

First!

[@JelMain]

That's ridiculous, a yacht is not a legal entity. Only Companies and Individuals qualify. I might as well sue a brick wall which jumped out in front of my car!

[@phil4977]

Scuttle the bloody thing. It’s Russian owned.

[@ycplum7062]

Sounds like Donald Trump might be interested in hiring these lawyers. Trump always hires the best. /sarc

[@londguy1]

Feeling okay? It was a rather off delivered episode.

[@tonyadeney1245]

I think thats my yacht - parked in Walmart Miami and went to the bar - only realised next morning, who are you bro - sorry miss - what a hangover - no I havnt any more cash - three hours later - wheres my yacht key gone ... ???

[@stiffler4774]

First!
