A luxury yacht belonging to Ukrainian oligarch Viktor Medvedchuk was officially transferred to the Ukrainian state on May 15, said Ukraine’s Agency for Investigation and Management of Assets, known by its Ukrainian acronym ARMA.
The Royal Romance, a 92-meter (300-foot) luxury yacht worth an estimated 200 million euros ($218 million), was seized by Croatian authorities in March 2022 in relation to EU sanctions imposed on Medvedchuk.
“This is a historic moment for our country,” said Shipping Administration head Yevhenii Ihnatenko.

Ihnatenko added that profits from the sale of the yacht would be directed to Ukraine’s state budget.
The orcas seem to be only attacking much smaller boats, and only sailboats at that. Usually around 15 meter range. It seems to have something to do with the rudders too - they like ramming the rudders, and that’s where the boats sometimes start taking on water.
