Superyacht Irina VU disappears

The 35m sunseeker yacht went missing three months ago but the authorities have only just realised….

It sounds like something out of Ocean’s Eleven: on the evening of the 6th October 2022, a 35m Russian oligarch-owned yacht disappeared from its marina and a practically identical vessel appeared in its place. Three months after the event the authorities are only just reporting it.

According to the website marinetraffic.com, Irina VU , a Sunseeker yacht, was steered away from the port of Betina, on the Croatian island of Murter and entered the Turkish port of Didim three days later. This was its last known AIS position in October 2022. S uperyachtNews contacted the Turkish marina who refused to comment on the location of the vessel.

The Croatian newspaper Jutranji list reported that according to unknown sources neither the police nor the harbour master had any record in the system that the luxury asset had a ban on sailing.

The Minister of Maritime Affairs, Transport and Infrastructure, Oleg Butković, contradicted the remarks. The Croatian news outlet Maritime HR reported that Butković informed the journalists that the accusations about Irina VU not being listed as a frozen asset were false.

Butković  stated that the circumstances of the yacht's disappearance is under investigation by the Ministry of the Sea, Transport and Infrastructure with the cooperation of other bodies from the Ministry of Interior.

Jutarnji list reported that Alen Gospočić, State Secretary at the Ministry of the Sea, Transport and Infrastructure, said the ministry was informed that one of the five yachts belonging to Russian oligarchs detained in Croatian ports was stolen from the port of Betina. Jutranji list also reported that according to the current information available to the Croatian investigative authorities, the yachts are not connected and it was just a coincidence.

Perplexed by the disappearance of the yacht, Jurica Gašpar, the editor of Maritime HR, pointed out on Radio Free Europe that there is video surveillance in the marina, and Irina VU would have had to cross half of the Adriatic to the exit to the open waters, without any of the authorities noticing, including the coast guard. 

The circumstances around the disappearance of the yacht seem to point to the vessel turning off the AIS. However, Gašpar explained that even when the tracking system had been disabled, the yacht would still be visible on radars. He emphasised Croatia's modern radar system for monitoring traffic at sea.

Mobile menu, croatia investigates disappearance of yacht linked to russian oligarch.

Published: 28 January 2023

Croatian authorities launched on Friday a criminal investigation into the disappearance of a luxury yacht from an Adriatic port close to Split, where it was kept as part of Western sanctions imposed on Russian oligarchs close to Putin.

The yacht named ‘Irina VU’ is beneficially owned by Irina Viner, a rhythmic gymnastics coach and former wife of Russian oligarch Alisher Usmanov. The couple divorced after 30 years of marriage last year sometime after sanctions were imposed on Usmanov. 

“Several people have been taken to police for questioning in relation to the departure of the ‘Irina VU’ vessel from Croatia in October last year,” the Croatian Police Directorate said in a statement .

The investigation, according to police, has been focused to a wider area of Split county, where several offices and homes have been searched.

Since the West imposed sanctions, Croatia seized four other luxury yachts belonging to sanctioned Russian oligarchs. ‘Irina VU’  was docked in Croatia in a marina on the island of Murter, in central Dalmatia.

The value of the 35-meter-long vessel was estimated at five million euros (US$5.42 million), Croatian national TV reported .

Croatian authorities allegedly didn’t notice that a vessel under international sanctions had left the country, until it was pointed out in local media.

According to reports , despite the U.S., U.K. and EU sanctions, which prohibited the vessel’s departure, the yacht left the marina in October last year and sailed to the southern port of Dubrovnik, from where it sailed off towards Turkey, after passing police, customs and harbor master’s controls.

The Uzbek-born oligarch and one of the richest Russians, metal and mining mogul, Alisher Usmanov , who is reported to maintain close ties with Russian President Vladimir Putin, was added to the Western sanctions lists soon after the Moscow regime unleashed the invasion of Ukraine.

Some of his luxurious properties were seized as a result of the sanctions. Last year OCCRP reported how many of the oligarch assets are held through offshore companies, making them difficult to track. 

Usmanov’s press service denied on Saturday that Irina Vu is owned by him and stated that he is in no way connected to its disappearance from the Croatian marina. 

Correction: The article was updated to include a statement from the press service of Alisher Usmanov and to correctly reflect his relationship with his former wife Irina Viner.

Several questioned in Croatia over oligarch's missing yacht

• Oops! Something went wrong. Please try again later. More content below

ZAGREB, Croatia (AP) — Croatian police on Friday brought in for questioning several people over the disappearance last October of a luxury yacht from an Adriatic Sea marina where it was held as part of Western sanctions imposed on oligarchs with links to Russian President Vladimir Putin .

The disappearance of the 35-meter Irina Vu from the marina on the island of Murter was only recently noticed and reported by local media. The yacht reportedly sailed to Turkey and another one was left in its place.

The incident has triggered public criticism of the authorities in Croatia. The luxury vessel was one of five impounded in the country because they belonged to Russia-linked tycoons who came under international sanctions following the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

The government has replaced officials in charge of coastal security and the Murter marina while also stepping up monitoring of the remaining yachts.

The state HRT television said the missing yacht is worth around 5 million euros ($5.44 million.) Local media have reported that it belongs to the family of Russian metals magnate Alisher Usmanov and is apparently formally registered to his wife.

Croatian police gave no details about the suspects or the investigation. The statement added that officers have been conducting searches in several locations, including the suspects' homes.

Croatia is a popular yachting destination because of its stunning coastline and hundreds of islands. Local media have also questioned how the yacht could sail all the way to Turkey without being registered and checked along the way.

Several questioned in Croatia over oligarch’s missing yacht

More Questions on Missing Russian Yacht Irina Vu in Croatia

Total Croatia News

Updated on: May 11, 2023

TODAY’s statement by the Minister of Maritime Affairs, Transport and Infrastructure, Oleg Butković, has deepened the issue of the sailing of the Russian yacht under the sanctions of Irina VU, and not resolved it.

She had to go through police and border control in Dubrovnik

What we knew until today is that the luxury yacht Irina VU, owned by the wife of Russian oligarch Ališer Usmanov, a close friend of Russian President Vladimir Putin, was under EU, US and UK sanctions and was prohibited from sailing.

She was anchored in Betina on Murter, and according to the information from the website, she sailed from the Betina marina on October 6 at 10:14, and on October 9 around 12:00, she was in the Turkish port of Didim. In order for the yacht to leave Croatian territorial waters, it had to go through police and border control and control by the Port Authority in Dubrovnik.

Let’s also recall the words of Frano Matušić at the beginning of the text, that is, on July 13, a decision was made to freeze the yacht. How did something like that get around the police? I guess that should be more important than the remark of one employee of the port master’s office to other port masters’ offices.

After all, what about the employees of the marina and shipyard on Murter? How did they not see that there was no yacht that was under sanctions and how was no one informed about it for three months? Furthermore, the people in charge at the marina and the boathouse had to give permission because a yacht that is in dry dock cannot be launched just like that.

To put such a vessel into operation, as we have learned from unofficial conversations with port and marina employees, a crane must be raised, the ship lowered into the sea according to someone’s request, the crew must be notified. So, you need to do some paperwork, do all those actions that precede her sailing.

How did the crew know the surveillance system didn’t see the blockage?

All the entities mentioned in this text were contacted by Index, looking for answers, which apparently are still not available to the public. We did not receive answers to written inquiries, and phone calls, as usually happens on Fridays in state institutions and companies, did not bear fruit. We were only answered by SOA, writing that they cannot comment on this case.

The most important questions are the ones we asked Butković’s ministry. We were interested in who was supervising the yacht in the Betina skver (we asked the skver himself), but also who issued the order to lower the yacht into the sea, as well as whether permission was issued for it to set sail.

We asked this ministry, as well as the MUP and the Dubrovnik police, how the ship passed the border control in Dubrovnik. Finally, we were also interested in how the crew knew that the surveillance system did not see the blockage that Minister Butković was talking about today.

If they had known this, some logic dictates, they would not have gone to the border control, which they obviously had to cross. We were also interested in who made up the crew and what the sealing of the vessel implies, i.e. whether it also means a mechanical ban on driving the vehicle.

Hajdaš Dončić: There is no system, no control

Another state secretary, the one in the relevant ministry of the sea, Alen Gospočić told Slobodna Dalmacija that this is pure theft, so it is unclear how it was not reported as such, which is actually the story’s context.

He also said something interesting to Slobodna Dalmacija – that they cannot have security guards in the ports and that it is an open marina, where everyone can come without any problems. “In the port of Betina, everything is open to anyone’s access. Both you and I can come there, walk along the waterfront and jump on any yacht that is moored there.

The Ministry informed the port that the yacht was blocked, the harbor master issued an instruction to the authorities that the yacht should not be accessed in any way, and the Ministry does not hire security services for 24-hour guarding of other people’s property, nor does it plan to do so, because such a system is unsustainable “, says Gospočić.

After all, Slobodna Dalmacija rightly asked itself how it is possible for the company Brodogradilište i marina, whose founder is Adut Konzalting, a company from Split, to let a ship leave without paying its bill. Especially the one that is under sanctions and is 35 meters long.

We also called the former line minister Siniša Hajdaš Dončić. “My brown yacht sails in the basement under the manhole, that’s how one could characterize the total absence of a control system in Plenković’s, sorry Luj 14 administration.

The harbor master should have been informed of the seizure and then the harbor master’s office cannot issue a navigation permit. As I said, there is no system, no control,” said Hajdaš Dončić briefly.

Former captain Obradović: I was on two sealed ships, there were armed security guards around us

We had a long talk on this topic with the former Dubrovnik sailor, long-sea captain Đorđe Obradović, who twice found himself on ships that were sealed by the port authorities. His statements actually best suggest what kind of procedure is involved in serious countries.

“Due to debts owed to suppliers of fuel and supplies, the ship I was sailing on was sealed by the port authorities in the port of Nassau in the Bahamas. We were tied to the waterfront for about a month, and the ship was guarded by two security guards armed only with pistols, who among other equipment had portable radio devices.

The ship was sealed very simply by placing a seal similar to the ones used on electricity meters in apartments on the cabinet with the ship’s master certificate and important documents.

No one was allowed to enter the ship except for the crew who were allowed to go out, but only with a port pass, while passports and seaman’s books were on board, in a sealed cabinet with other documents. From time to time, the control of the security company and the port authorities would come and tour the ship. When the company settled the debt, the port authorities unsealed the ship and allowed it to sail,” he says.

He said more about the second case.

“The second time I was on the ship was in Galveston, Texas, when the company sold the ship to another owner. The US Coast Guard took away the ship’s most important certificates and documents, and they put seals on the helm on the bridge and on the handle to start the main engine in the engine room There were security guards on the ship and next to it.

The sealing of the ship itself is a symbolic act and in some countries it can be a simple piece of paper prohibiting sailing. The actual seizure is taken care of by the authorities of the state that seizes the ship for various reasons, and in addition to the security guards who physically guard the ship, the most important thing is radar navigation surveillance, which identifies vessels, monitors their movement and takes the necessary actions, from permission to prohibition of navigation,” he said.

“The seal can be removed, but no one would dare to do that”

Was it possible to remove these fillings?

“Of course, with slightly stronger pliers, but no one would dare to do that. Not only would the security guards alert the coast guard, but the coast guard would detect even the slightest movement of the ship with radar tracking.

Another reason is that none of the crew would dare to do something like that in America, because they would be blacklisted, lose their certificates and the right to an American visa, which were then mandatory, which would mean that they would not be able to board anywhere in the world. and work as a sailor.

As soon as the new company paid all the expenses the ship had from the sale to the takeover, the certificates were returned and it was allowed to set sail,” said former captain Obradović.

We ask him how the seized Russian yacht Irina VU was able to set sail.

“It is really difficult to answer that question. A detailed investigation will show that, but considering the whole strange situation, it is possible that it was a combination of unfortunate circumstances for the Croatian authorities or a well-planned action by the shipowner with the help of someone from Croatia.

Everything was certainly well planned, but the question arises as to how they dared to take away the confiscated yacht, i.e. how did they know that the other harbor authorities were not informed about the seizure, so the Irina VU sailed from the Adriatic, even though she was spotted and tracked by radar and properly signed off before leaving Croatian waters.

If other harbor authorities, except the Šibenik one, had known that it was a seized vessel, the Irina VU would not have been able to leave the Adriatic. The Ministry of the Sea, Transport and Infrastructure must investigate everything that happened and provide answers to your questions, because this is of interest to the public, and causes astonishment among seafarers,” he added.

Former head of SOA Letica: There is probably corruption here

Former head of SOA operations, Ante Letica, said that several elements probably came together in this case.

“It is probably, I will not say about some negligence, but indolence of state bodies and organs, there is probably also corruption in this and that is why it is necessary not only that the port captains, the port authorities, the police and so on, but also the SOA , to investigate it, to see what is negligence, irresponsibility, indolence, and what is corruption. Someone will have to answer for that,” said Letica.

He pointed out that it is strange to him how the yacht got into the sea from dry mooring.

“Then the crew was there and they sailed to Dubrovnik, completed the details that needed to be done – approvals from the port authorities, refueled, and it sailed out of Croatian territorial waters. That needs to be seen and I think that the State Attorney’s Office will give the legal qualification of that act. We need to see where there is indolence, irresponsibility, negligence of state bodies, and where there is corruption, bribery and so on, and everyone should be held accountable according to their part of responsibility,” said Letica.

He expressed the hope that everyone in the decision-making chain woke up because of this case and noticed the irregularities and gaps that need to be filled. “Now those yachts are better guarded, there are supposedly sailors there all the time who take care of maritime safety, there are also security guards, and I hope that this has now been raised to a higher level,” said Letica.

Usmanov: I’m no longer married to Irina

The reaction of Alisher Usmanov’s public relations office has since arrived following the publication of this article, we’ll transmit that press release in its entirety:

“Mr. Usmanov and Irina Viner are no longer married. Furthermore, Mr. Usmanov is not the owner of the yacht Irina VU and is in no way connected with the vessel’s disappearance from the Betina marina.

Mr. Usmanov is not an “oligarch” either – a term used to refer to businessmen who have profited through ties to the state and, more specifically, to those who participated in the privatisation of Russian state assets after the collapse of the Soviet Union. None of this applies to Mr. Usmanov, who made his fortune by creating his own companies and making very successful deals and investments on the open market.”

Jahta, ki je v lasti ruskega oligarha in prijatelja Vladimirja Putina, je izginila. Gre za jahto Irina VU Ališerja Usmanova in njegove žene Irine, ki je zaradi ruske agresije na Ukrajino pristala pod sankcijami Evropske unije, ZDA in Velike Britanije. Da je izginila iz marine Betina na otoku Murter, pa so oblasti ugotovile šele po treh mesecih. A zgodba je še bolj nenavadna, saj je v času izginotja Irine VU v pristanišče vplula skoraj enaka drug…

Usmanov says he isn’t the owner of Irina VU yacht

Alisher Usmanov's public relations service said on Friday that he is not the owner of the yacht Irina VU, which is under international sanctions and since it sailed out of a Croatian seaport eight persons are under criminal investigation.

In its request for a correction, the PR service also said that Mr. Usmanov was in no way connected to the yacht’s disappearance from the Croatian marina.

According to them, many media outlets which earlier reported on the yacht’s disappearance have since released corrections or apologies over the wrong reporting on this topic.

The yacht which media linked to Usmanov, a close friend of Russian President Vladmir Putin, was under EU, US and UK sanctions, and was banned from sailing out. It was anchored on Murter island, from where it sailed to Dubrovnik and then on to Turkey last October, having passed Croatian police, border and port authority control.
