  • A captain who worked for wealthy Russians has described his experiences.

  • He revealed contracts that forbid staff from taking pictures of the boats.

A captain who has spent 15 years at sea detailed his experience working for wealthy Russians.

The captain's account was reported by The Guardian.

The captain who has sailed ultra-rich individuals throughout the Caribbean and Mediterranean said they are very secretive about what happens on their ships.

Employees had to take a lie detector test to prove they were following their bosses' instructions.

The captain told the outlet that employees were required to sign a non-disclosure agreement to get an interview for a job onboard.

The captain said that they are operated in a secret way so they can use them and distract attention from their owners.

He said that employees of the superyachts must sign contracts not to share business documents, photographs, and drawings.

His experience meshes with that of another worker. The designer told The FT that he couldn't take photos of his work because it was so secret.

Russia invaded Ukraine earlier this year and has been scrutinizing the owners of superyachts. Western sanctions on Russia were imposed after the war. Measures have been taken to target wealthy Russians.

Some owners are sailing their ships around the seas to avoid being seized, or turning their ship's tracking signal off to avoid detection, because of the number of Russian yachts being seized.

According to recent ship- tracking data, an $80 million superyacht linked to Russian tycoon Vagit Alekperov has spent seven weeks off the coast of Montenegro to avoid being seized.
