A $120 million megayacht linked to a Russian billionaire has been docked in Antigua and Barbuda for 19 months. Now taxpayers in the small country are paying $28,000-a-week to maintain the idle vessel, per the WSJ. The Alfa Nero is a $120 million vessel that was raided by armed police and the FBI in August 2022, having been left in Antigua's Falmouth Harbor since Russia invaded Ukraine six months earlier.

A sanctioned superyacht is racking up about $112,000 per month in crew costs, Bloomberg reported. The crew have been on the vessel for over a year and have reportedly taken to playing "Call of Duty." Over the past year, Alfa Nero's crew have tried to find ways to pass time while the ship remains stuck. Bloomberg reported that the crew have taken to playing "Call of Duty" and other PlayStation games in the ship's master suite. The crew — which has dwindled from 44 to 6 people — will also sometimes swim in the yacht's infinity pool, Bloomberg said.
An $81 million superyacht linked to a Russian oligarch is reportedly set to be auctioned off. The 81.2-meter Alfa Nero has been linked to Russian chemicals magnate Andrey Guryev. An Antigua and Barbuda government minister reportedly said the "abandoned" yacht risks becoming a "hazard." The 81.2-meter Alfa Nero was built by Oceanco and can accommodate 12 guests in six staterooms and 28 crew, according to Boat International. The Treasury department said in August that the Alfa Nero was a "blocked property" of Guryev's, and that he reportedly bought the yacht for $120 million in 2014.
