Following the conflict in Ukraine and the subsequent sanctions imposed on Moscow, a significant number of yachts owned by Russian oligarchs have been confiscated across the globe. These opulent vessels, symbolizing immense affluence and influence, encompassing several valued at hundreds of millions of dollars, have drawn attention as environmental anomalies on the planet. The consumption of five hundred liters of fuel oil per hour by each yacht underscores their extravagant fuel appetite, signifying a substantial environmental concern.

However, amidst this, some of these extravagant yachts have embraced ecofriendliness. Through novel applications, emerging technologies, and fresh destinations, there is a burgeoning exploration into the realm of yachting – a sector undergoing rapid transformation.
