Russian Oligarch Continues To Navigate Mega Yacht In Los Cabos Area

Oleg Tinkov, known as the Russian beer czar is apparently on board his 252ft yacht known as La Datcha. The mega yacht had been spotted near Los Cabos beaches earlier this week. It has since been assumed that Oleg Tinkov is on board the yacht and looking to escape the war waged by his home country in Mexican beaches.
According to the most recent reports the vessel has moved up the coastline to the Bahia de Tortugas area. Another famous port in the Baja California region. Whether Tinkov or his family remain on board is a mystery at this point. Other wealthy Russian businessmen have had a hard time leaving their home soil. It would seem Tinkov sailed away just in time.
The War Has Not Been Profitable For Tinkov
As the outbreak of war continues to devastate Ukrainian families, certain Russian businesses have actually benefited from the conflict. Particularly those companies in the energy sector. With oil prices spiking up to levels that had not been seen since 2014. The owner of the La Datcha is not heavily involved in those types of businesses. He is also well known for being the owner of Digital Bank Tinkoff.
The bank has actually made Tinkoff lose his billionaire status in a matter of days! According to Forbes magazine share prices for Tinkoff’s bank have fallen by 90% since the start of the war with Ukraine. Since Tinkoff’s assets were heavily tied up in the bank business the magazine estimates that his net worth that floated around 5 billion dollars just a few weeks ago has now fallen to around 800 million dollars.
If that were to be true, that would mean that the boat that he is currently on represents about 13% of his total net worth! La Datcha is a boat that was built back in 2019. Currently, it’s valued at right around 110 million dollars. If things continue on a downward trend for Tinkoff with his bank this trip aboard La Datcha to the Cabo area may very well be one of his last ones on the boat at all. It’s probably safe to say that Tinkoff is one of the many Russians who isn’t a supporter of the war in Ukraine.
One of The Biggest Developers In The Cabo Area
Tinkoff has been one of the many international businessmen who have fallen in love with the Cabo region. He created the La Datcha Villa . The luxury property is located on the Pedregal beach in Cabo San Lucas. It can be rented out for a cool price of around 35 thousand dollars a night plus a 19% tax fee! The villa can house up to 20 people for that price tag. That’s a way to offset some costs.
It’s presumed that Tinkoff and some close family members and companions made land in Los Cabos, and are currently staying at the Villa. Although, there has been no confirmation that this is the case. The Villa doesn’t seem to be currently up for rent though. Which certainly indicates that it’s occupied. At this point in time Mexican authorities have not mentioned anything about the presence of the Russian millionaire in the Cabo region. Tinkoff has expressed his love for the Cabo area on numerous occasions. Apparently he hopes to be able to wait out the war here in Cabo San Lucas. Tinkoff mentioned, about his Villa,
“It took me several years to bring the project in Cabo San Lucas to life. I was very lucky to buy this piece of coastal land, managing to build a house that embodies my vision of life and design.”

Russian super luxury yacht arrives in Cabo San Lucas; annoyed tourists
The super luxury yacht that is rented for 900,000 dollars a week arrives in Los Cabos in the middle of the war between Russia and Ukraine
Los Cabos. The 75-meter-long La Datcha surprised the inhabitants of Cabo San Lucas, since in the waters of the municipality of Cabo, the imposing vessel with the Russian flag, whose owner is the billionaire,  Oleg Tinkov , has been seen, who has requested the end of the war to President Vladimir Putin.Â
Various images have already been shared on social networks where the boat can be seen in the entity, accompanied by messages of annoyance from tourists:Â âhe plays while in Ukraine there are people sufferingâ , they point out.Â
Far removed from the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the icebreaker yacht sails through South Californian waters, which in fact is rented for 900,000 dollars a week  and has 2 main cabins, a lounge, sauna, steam bath, massage room, and gym, with capacity for 12 people.Â
It is the first yacht capable of traversing 16-inch-thick ice,  thus sailing the seas with autonomy for up to 40 days, said the vessel was a special order from the builder Damen Yachting.Â
Although it is not known for sure who is inside La Datcha, it is possible that it is Oleg Tinkov himself, an entrepreneur who went from selling beer to creating his own digital bank; however, he was one of the 10 Russian billionaires who left the â3 commasâ club , due to the collapse of Russian stocks.Â

Russian banker and billionaire Oleg Tinkov, who is estimated by Forbes to have a net worth of $2.3 billion, has ordered the first private Damen SeaXplorer 77m/252ft icebreaker yacht named LA DATCHA with the intention of offering her for luxury yacht charter.
LA DATCHA offers ultimate expedition charters
Mr. Tinkov intends to spend up to 20 weeks per year aboard the ice-breaker vessel, which is being built with six decks, a 14-metre beam and a draft of 6.5 metres to form an interior volume of 2,560 GT.
In icy waters
The superyacht is being built as part of the billionaire’s luxury recreational project also named ‘La Datcha’, which is comprised of several holiday hikes in lavish luxury destinations such as Cabo San Lucas on the Mexico Baja California peninsula, and the Val Thorens chalet in the French Alps.
On board, there will be an extensive variety of water toys and the current list is set to include a submarine, 4 x Waverunners and 2 x snow scooters. Two helicopters, a VIP tender/rescue boat, a beach lander tender, dive support tender and a pair of expedition RIBS are also stored on board for safety and transport.
Submersible
The interior design from Amels and Damen will feature floor-to-ceiling windows in the observation lounge, main salon and Owner’s suite, and on the upstairs observation deck. For relaxation, there will be an indoor and outdoor Jacuzzi, a sauna, steam bath, massage room and fully-equipped gym.
The accommodation provides for up to 12 guests over six lavish en-suite cabins that include two Master suites and two VIP staterooms, and all have walk-in wardrobes. The accommodation also sleeps a crew and expedition staff of 25.
Once completed, expedition yacht LA DATCHA is expected for delivery in autumn 2020 for a public debut at the Monaco Yacht Show 2020, following which she will be available for charter starting from âŹ690,000,000 per week plus expenses.
Her current cruising itinerary places her in Greece in September/October 2020 before heading south to the Seychelles and Madagascar . Other destinations on offer include Thailand and Malaysia , North and South Kamchatka in one of Russia’s most dramatic coastal regions, the Kuril Islands, the Galapagos Islands and Alaska , where her ice-breaking hull capable of getting through ice 40 centimetres thick will be put to good use. In addition, her ability to maintain autonomy for up to 40 days will be particularly useful for visiting remote islands.
According to Forbes, a Russian businessman has already expressed interest in a six-month-long luxury yacht charter and Microsoft founder Bill Gates intends to secure a three-week superyacht charter on board.

Federal government moves to confiscate mega yacht seized from alleged Russian oligarch
NATIONAL CITY, Calif. (KGTV) â After letting a mega yacht seized from an alleged Russian oligarch sit in San Diego bay for nearly 18 months, the federal government is now beginning the process of trying to officially confiscate it.
The Amadea was seized in Fiji and arrived in San Diego in June of 2022. According to court documents obtained by ABC 10News, federal prosecutors allege that the yacht is owned by Suleiman Kerimov, a Russian billionaire who was sanctioned following Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
Kerimov had the ship custom-built at a reported cost of $300 million dollars. It's considered one of the most lavish mega yachts in the world. "Even in our jaded industry, the yacht behind me is a superstar," said yacht expert Todd Roberts, President of Marine Group Boat Works, a ship yard in Chula Vista that works on mega yachts, though not contracted to work on the Amadea.
While the government may hope to win the case to confiscate the yacht and sell it, that may be a tricky proposition. âNobody really wants international law to be designed in a way where countries can just sort of seize other countryâs assets and actually confiscate them," explained University of San Diego law professor Craig Barkacs.
He says it is not legally clear that the United States has the right to confiscate the ship, even after seizing it. There are a number of United States and international laws that could be at play. He points out that the seizure of the ship for violating sanctions is more of a political decision than a legal one.
Even the ownership of Amadea by Kerimov is being challenged, with a counter lawsuit filed on behalf of another man who claims to be owner of the yacht. Barkacs says the court battle could last a long time. âThe answer to your question is, I donât want to sound too cynical here, but 'in perpetuity' comes to mind.â
Meanwhile, the government is stuck with the ship. Roberts says it must be maintained because letting it rot would lead to leaks and environmental damage to the bay. He estimates the cost of paying for fuel to power the generators, plus maintenance, and the salaries of the 20-30 person crew living full-time on the yacht to be between $4-6 million annually.
If it wins in court, the government could sell Amadea to recoup its money. But for now, it will remain parked in its spot next to Pepper Park.
âIf the boatâs going to sit anywhere, itâs great that itâs here in San Diego," Roberts said.

Russian super luxury yacht arrives in Cabo San Lucas; annoyed tourists
The super luxury yacht that is rented for 900,000 dollars a week arrives in Los Cabos in the middle of the war between Russia and Ukraine
Los Cabos. The 75-meter-long La Datcha surprised the inhabitants of Cabo San Lucas, since in the waters of the municipality of Cabo, the imposing vessel with the Russian flag, whose owner is the billionaire,  Oleg Tinkov , has been seen, who has requested the end of the war to President Vladimir Putin.Â
Various images have already been shared on social networks where the boat can be seen in the entity, accompanied by messages of annoyance from tourists:Â “he plays while in Ukraine there are people suffering” , they point out.Â
Far removed from the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the icebreaker yacht sails through South Californian waters, which in fact is rented for 900,000 dollars a week  and has 2 main cabins, a lounge, sauna, steam bath, massage room, and gym, with capacity for 12 people.Â
It is the first yacht capable of traversing 16-inch-thick ice,  thus sailing the seas with autonomy for up to 40 days, said the vessel was a special order from the builder Damen Yachting.Â
Although it is not known for sure who is inside La Datcha, it is possible that it is Oleg Tinkov himself, an entrepreneur who went from selling beer to creating his own digital bank; however, he was one of the 10 Russian billionaires who left the “3 commas” club , due to the collapse of Russian stocks.Â

Mega Yacht in Cabo
It's called "Serene." At a staggering 436-feet, with five levels, several swimming pools, two helicopter pads and soaring chrome exhaust pipes at the top, it outshines every other yacht in the Cabo marina. (Its best amenities are apparently inside: there is an "underwater viewing room," an indoor climbing wall, children's playroom and cabins for 24 guests and 52 crew, according to the yacht builder.) In fact - it is actually too large to fit into the marina and was anchored off the RIU hotels.
The owner of Serene is Yuri Scheffler, the vodka-and-spirits magnate behind the Stolichnaya brand. And with the turmoil in Ukraine and Russia, many have also speculated that Serene's sudden presence first in the USA (recently it was docked in New York City) and now in Los Cabos is a sign of worried oligarchsâthe Putin-connected, Russian super rich who now face a financial backlash from the West for Russia's actions in the Crimea and Ukraine.
However that speculation is pretty far from the mark: Scheffler, who now lives in London, England, has publicly battled President Vladimir Putin for years as the Russian government tried to seize his company and "renationalize" its assets. The government even issued a warrant for Scheffler's arrest in 2003 after he refused to hand over the company.
So when asked about his views on Ukraine recently by CNBC News, Scheffler was highly critical of Russia's government.
"If Russia were a democratic country as the USA, with a proper legal system, and Crimea had asked it for help to defend itself from a hostile neighbor, then this would be OK," he wrote in reply to a written request. "In the current situation, this is terrible when a country captures a neighbor's territory. I feel sorry for Crimean people ... there are no laws in Russia. There is only one law in Russia, and it's called 'Putin.' Only one justice, called 'Putin'.''
Politics aside though, a mega yacht like this around Los Cabos creates a stir and gives everyone a glimpse of how the mega rich live.

Russian oligarch's yacht costs U.S. taxpayers close to $1 million a month
A mega-yacht seized by U.S. authorities from a Russian oligarch is costing the government nearly $1 million a month to maintain, according to new court filings.
The U.S. Department of Justice is seeking permission to sell a 348-foot yacht called Amadea, which it seized in 2022, alleging that it was owned by sanctioned Russian billionaire Suleiman Kerimov. The government said it wants to sell the $230 million yacht due to the âexcessive costsâ of maintenance and crew, which it said could total $922,000 a month.
âIt is excessive for taxpayers to pay nearly a million dollars per month to maintain the Amadea when these expenses could be reduced to zero through [a] sale,â according to a court filing by U.S. prosecutors on Friday.
The monthly charges for Amadea, which is now docked in San Diego, California, include $600,000 per month in running costs: $360,000 for the crew; $75,000 for fuel; and $165,000 for maintenance, waste removal, food and other expenses. They also include $144,000 in monthly pro-rata insurance costs and special charges including dry-docking fees, at $178,000, bringing the total to $922,000, according to the filings.
The battle over Amadea and the costs to the government highlight the financial and legal challenges of seizing and selling assets owned by Russian oligarchs after the countryâs invasion of Ukraine. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said last week that the European Union should use profits from more than $200 billion of frozen Russian assets to fund Ukraineâs war effort.
Her comments echoed government calls in the spring of 2022 to freeze the yachts, private jets and mansions of Russian billionaires in hopes of putting pressure on Russian President Vladimir Putin and raising money for the war effort.
Yet, nearly two years later, the legal process for proving ownership of the Russian assets and selling them has proven to be far more time-consuming and costly. In London, Russian billionaire Eugene Shvidler has waged a court battle over his private jets that were impounded, and Sergei Naumenko has been appealing the detention of his superyacht Phi.
The battle over Amadea began in April 2022, when it was seized in Fiji at the request of the U.S. government, according to the court filings.
Though the U.S. alleges that the yacht is owned by Kerimov, who made his fortune in mining, attorneys for Eduard Khudainatov, an ex-Rosneft CEO who has not been sanctioned, say he owns the yacht, and have sought to take back possession of the vessel.
In court filings, Khudainatovâs attorneys have objected to the U.S. governmentâs efforts to sell the yacht, saying a rushed sale could lead to a distressed sale price and that the maintenance costs are minor relative to the potential sale value.
Khudainatovâs attorneys refuse to pay the ongoing maintenance costs as long as the government pursues a sale and forfeiture. However, they say their client will reimburse the U.S. government for the more than $20 million already spent to maintain the yacht if itâs returned to its proper owner.
In court papers, the government says Kerimov disguised his ownership of Amadea through a series of shell companies and other owners. They say emails between crew members show Kerimov âwas the beneficial owner of the yacht, irrespective of the titleholder of the vessel.â
The emails show that Kerimov and his family ordered several interior improvements of the yacht, including a new pizza oven and spa, and that between 2021 and 2022, when the boat was seized, âthere were no guest trips on the Amadea that did not include either Kerimov or his family members,â according to the court filings.
The government also says Kerimov has been trying to sell Amadea for years, so a sale would be in keeping with his intent.
âThis is not a situation in which a court would be ordering sale of a precious heirloom that a claimant desperately wishes to keep for sentimental reasons,â the government said in filings.
Even if Amadea were sold quickly, the proceeds wouldnât automatically go to the government. Under law, the money would be held while Khudainatov and the government continue their battle in court over the ownership and forfeiture.

South Africa will allow a Russian oligarch to moor his superyacht in Cape Town as it continues on epic global cruise avoiding Western sanctions
- A $500 million oligarch-owned superyacht has cruised between the Seychelles, Russia, and Hong Kong.
- The yacht, owned by sanctioned billionaire Alexei Mordashov, is now headed to Cape Town, South Africa.
- Cape Town's mayor and the South African president are at odds over allowing the yacht to dock.
A $500 million superyacht will be allowed to dock in Cape Town, South Africa despite its Russian oligarch owner being sanctioned by the US, UK and EU.
Nord, the 465-foot vessel owned by billionaire steel magnate Alexei Mordashov , has made multiple stops across the eastern hemisphere since he was sanctioned in the aftermath of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
Data from Marine Traffic shows that Nord left the Seychelles in March before staying in Vladivostok , in the Russian far east, until September 28, when it made its way to Hong Kong .
At the time, Washington warned Hong Kong against providing a "safe haven" for sanctioned oligarchs, questioning the city state's reputation as an international financial center.
Nord has now left the city state, and is sailing towards South Africa where it is expected to moor on November 9, Marine Traffic data shows. The yacht's last reported position was west of Indonesia on Wednesday, per Spire Maritime .
When it arrives in South Africa, it will be allowed to dock, despite outcry from some in the country.
The mayor of Cape Town, Geordin Hill-Lewis, told the Wall Street Journal that the city could become "a new favorite destination for Russians fleeing sanctions in the rest of the world" if Nord is allowed to dock.
Hill-Lewis also said that he had received conflicting reports as to whether Mordashov is on board his superyacht, but the oligarch's spokesperson said he remains in Moscow, per the Journal.
The mayor, a member of South Africa's opposition Democratic Alliance party, added: "South Africa has a moral duty to do what it can to protest unjust war, state terrorism, and the gross violation of human rights."
However, the country's government has rejected his call to turn away Nord, which has two helicopter pads and a swimming pool among other luxuries.

"South Africa has no legal obligation to abide by sanctions imposed by the US and EU," Vincent Magwenya, a spokesman for South African President Cyril Ramaphosa said, per the BBC.
"South Africa's obligations with respect to sanctions relate only to those that are specifically adopted by the United Nations."
South Africa was among the 35 countries which abstained from a UN resolution in March which demanded the withdrawal of Russian troops from Ukraine.
Mordashov's smaller superyacht, Lady M, was seized by Italian authorities in March due to EU sanctions. Bloomberg also reported that Nord changed its flag from Russia to the Cayman Islands in June.
