The former Google CEO Eric Schmidt acquired the Alfa Nero superyacht for $67.6 million. The yacht was owned by the Russian oligarch Andrey Guryev and was moored in the port of Falmouth on the south coast of the Caribbean island of Antigua since March 2023 in the wake of sanctions against Russia and its oligarchs. As the luxury ship became more and more of a financial burden and a security risk for the local authorities, she has now been auctioned off.
