Top 5 superyachts on the market for under €5m

Boat show season is upon us, so I’ve gone superyacht shopping on a budget. With over 700 brokerage yachts currently on the market, ranging in price from €295,000 for a used vessel to €185 million for some of the largest new-build concepts, I’ve explored just how much boat a smaller budget can get you.

Here’s my top 5 for superyachts for under €5 million:

37m m/y hush.

Bearing the unmistakable lines and styling of a Palmer Johnson yacht, Hush is a fantastic example of their PJ120 series and is presented for sale in immaculate condition. Her interior, by Nuvolari Lenard, is smart and contemporary with comfortable social spaces and accommodation for eight guests in four spacious en-suite cabins.

Number of guests: 8 Asking: €4,450,000 Listed for sale with: Burgess

26.9m S/Y Tiketitoo

With design and engineering from German Frers and an interior arrangement that provides accommodation for six guests in three cabins, there’s more to this little Wally than meets the eye. Well maintained and the recent recipient of a new teak deck, paint job and 3Di race sails, Tiketitoo is ready to hit the superyacht sailing scene.

Number of guests: 6 Asking: €1,500,000 Listed for sale with: Y.CO

32.5m M/Y Dolce Vita

Get a taste of the good life with 32.5m Dolce Vita. Launched in 2016 and still under shipyard warranty, this Numarine sports yacht has had just one owner since new and offers carefully considered functionality without compromising on performance or aesthetics.

Number of guests: 8 Asking: €4,750,00 Listed for sale with: Camper & Nicholsons

62.5m M/Y Blue Dawn

At 62.05m, Blue Dawn is one of the largest vessels this budget can buy. Built in 1959, she presents a fantastic refit opportunity for an owner with vision who’s looking to put his or her own stamp on something. Operated as a private yacht since 2004, Blue Dawn can sleep ten guests in five cabins but this could easily be increased to a 12-guest capacity.

Number of guests: Asking: €3,200,00 Listed for sale with: IYC

27.6m S/Y Mariska

Built in 1908 by Fife, this classic beauty fulfils every romantic notion of sailing yacht ownership. Having been comprehensively and lovingly restored, Mariska is not only an icon of the classic fleet but a serial regatta winner, taking the silverware at the Giraglia, Puerto Sherry, San Remo and St Tropez regattas – known as a ‘Grand Slam’ – in both 2016 and 2017.

Number of guests: Asking: €2,850,000 Listed for sale with: Northrop & Johnson

The 10 biggest superyachts currently listed for sale

Related articles, superyacht directory.

Want to know how much boat you can buy for your buck? BOAT takes a look at the biggest yachts currently for sale, starting with the iconic 114.5-metre superyacht Pelorus ...

Pelorus | 114.5m

Year: 2003 Builder: Lürssen

Pelorus was commissioned by a Saudi businessman who enjoyed one long, glorious cruise aboard his new superyacht before tycoon Roman Abramovich made him an offer too good to refuse. Easily the largest yacht to be built by Lürssen at the time, her Tim Heywood exterior features a top deck "lido" with two swimming pools, two helicopter pads and a vast, sea-level platform revealed by opening the transom. Interiors were carried out by Terence Disdale , who opted to use natural materials wherever possible to maintain a "casual" atmosphere – in the hopes it would offset the yacht’s imposing frame.

Pelorus is asking €185,000,000 with Burgess .

Moonlight II | 91.4m

Year: 2005 Builder: Neorion

The brainchild of the late Andreas Liveras, Moonchild II was originally commissioned as the 85.3-metre Alysia alongside sistership Annaliesse (now Queen Miri ). Her transformative 2015 refit added the extra 6.1 metres alongside a brand new beach club made complete with a well-stocked bar, sunbathing areas and shell doors that reveal far-flung ocean views. Other highlights include a touch-and-go helipad and a full-beam spa with massage room, beauty salon, steam shower and gym.

Moonlight II is asking €68,000,000 with Fraser .

Phoenix II | 90.1m

Year: 2010 Builder: Lürssen

Phoenix II  takes a page (or two) from The Great Gatsby with her cherry velvet flooring and gilded details. The owner commissioned Winch Design to create her intricate "Art Deco meets the New York skyline" design concept, including a 5.7-metre phoenix figurehead modelled after the Chrysler building's mounted eagles. Roaring highlights include a sommelier room, three swimming pools, a plush cinema room and a custom Steinway for some musical accompaniment at mealtimes.

Phoenix II is asking €124,950,000 with   Cecil Wright and Burgess .

Lady Lara | 91m

Year: 2015 Builder: Lürssen

Debuting on the brokerage market in September 2023, Lady Lara has eluded the public eye for eight years – with BOAT International only recently stepping on board . She was designed inside and out by Reymond Langton and features two standout swimming pools . The first transforms into a dance floor with surround-sound while the second is fitted with a swim-up bar, large day bed and sunlounger. Lady Lara 's recently-completed winter works were valued at a staggering €15,000,000.

Lady Lara is asking €230,000,000 with Y.CO and Merle Wood & Associates .

Year: 2009 Builder: Abeking & Rasmussen

Another Reymond Langton entry, B2 remains the second-largest launch by the German shipyard (beaten out by the 118.2-metre Livao ). Her recent four-million-euro refit saw the hull extended by seven metres – allowing room for a spacious beach club, with a glass-bottom infinity pool acting as its rippling, refracted ceiling. The beach club is also outfitted with lounge chairs, a drinks bar and flatscreen television.

B2 is asking €79,000,000 with Moravia Yachting .

Chakra | 86m

Year: 1963 Builder: Van Der Werf

Delivered first as a commercial vessel, Chakra was converted into a full-fledged superyacht in 1998 by Devonport Yachts . The change saw her five decks rearranged with a dedicated yoga area, spa pool, beauty parlor, massage room and gym. This unconventional yacht also boasts a globe-trotting range (in exces of 10,000 nautical miles) and a spacious tender garage housing Yamaha Wave Runners, two RIBs and a 12-metre Sessa dayboat.

Chakra is listed for sale with Merle Wood & Associates, with POA.

O'Ptasia | 84.7m

Year: 2018 Builder: Golden Yachts

Superseded by 95-metre sistership O'Pari in 2020, Golden Yachts' former flagship is still one of the largest yachts on the market today. Her most attention-pulling feature is the beach club spa, fitted with a steam room, dry Finnish sauna, Hammam and massage room. Continuing the theme of wellness, a touch-and-go helipad on the foredeck can double as a yoga studio (with a view like no other) while her waterfall Jacuzzi is also a rejuvenating spot.

O'Ptasia is asking €89,999,000.00 with Burgess.

Elements | 80m

Year: 2019 Builder: Yachtley

The newest delivery on the list, Elements is Alpha Marine -made and "one of the world’s few purpose-built SOLAS yachts" according to her broker. Worthy of note is the master cabin, complete with its own oval lobby that doubles as a walk-in closet and a private deck with helipad, swimming pool, Jacuzzi and small private dining table. Her opulent Cristiano Gatto interiors see unconventional features (think Grecian-style pillars and etched-mirrored glass) incorporated alongside gold, silver and mother of pearl inlays.

Elements is asking €112,000,000 with Camper & Nicholsons .

Amaryllis | 78.4m

Year: 2011 Builder: Abeking & Rasmussen

Inspired by the Belle Époque, Art Nouveau and Art Deco periods, it's no wonder Amaryllis'   interiors (owed to Reymond Langton) always dazzle those who step aboard. Leisure highlights include a piano lounge, cinema suite and five-metre pool with colourful underwater lighting for night-time swims. Her waterside set-up also impresses, with a beach club that features a fully-equipped (and perfectly paired) gym and spa.

Amaryllis is asking €89,000,000 with Moravia Yachting.

Yersin | 76.6m

Year: 2015 Builder: Piriou

Designed by Pierre-Jacques Kubis in the same scientific spirit as her namesake , Yersin is equipped with a barge, seaplane and enough provisions to keep 18 people fed for 50 days. But this military-style explorer is built not just for getting to extraordinary places, but also for making the most of them once there. Guests have free reign over a 30-square-metre spa, cinema and a pool deck complete with a teppanyaki galley, sushi bar and a large swimming pool. Other highlights include a library and an elevator accessing all decks.

Yersin is asking €59,000,000 with Fraser.

Bonus "Befana" da 100 euro per le famiglie, ipotesi anticipo a fine 2024: cosa sappiamo

Introduzione.

Secondo quanto riferito dal viceministro all’Economia Maurizio Leo , l’esecutivo starebbe pensando di anticipare a fine 2024 il bonus da 100 euro inizialmente previsto a inizio 2025 "per aiutare le famiglie in un periodo particolare dell’anno". Il contributo spetterebbe solo ai lavoratori dipendenti con reddito complessivo non superiore a 28mila euro ; coniuge non separato e almeno un figlio - entrambi a carico - oppure almeno un figlio a carico nel caso in cui l’altro genitore manchi; imposta lorda determinata sui redditi da lavoro dipendente d’importo superiore a quello delle detrazioni spettanti.

Sempre in tema di sostegno alle  famiglie , allo studio c’è l’ipotesi di potenziare l’assegno unico , dal valore di circa 20 miliardi l’anno, escludendolo dall’Isee per i nuclei molto numerosi. Il problema restano le cifre, visto che nei primi sette mesi del 2024 sono stati spesi 11,5 miliardi. Confermati, invece, il bonus mamme e i fringe benefit per i lavoratori con figli, con questi ultimi che potrebbero vedere un’equiparazione delle fasce verso la soglia più alta.

Quello che devi sapere

• Al lavoro sulla Manovra
• Sono tante le ipotesi che circolano in merito alla Manovra , in questi giorni in discussione all’interno della maggioranza . Conoscere la spesa presente e futura (a questo proposito va ricordato che il 20 settembre andrà presentato a Bruxelles il Piano strutturale di Bilancio , che include le uscite previste e il rientro dal debito nei prossimi anni) permetterà ai tecnici e ai ministeri di valutare le possibili misure da inserire nella prossima Legge di Bilancio. Il governo, però, si mostra fiducioso, come emerge dal tasso di crescita dell’1,5% e dal deficit sotto il 3% già nel 2026 inseriti nel documento

Per approfondire:

Manovra 2025, in Consiglio dei ministri l'esame del Piano strutturale di bilancio

• Le priorità della maggioranza
• Le priorità della maggioranza sono chiare: sostegno alla famiglia e ai ceti medi . Non è un caso, infatti, che nei giorni scorsi siano circolate indiscrezioni su una possibile riduzione delle tasse per le famiglie con figli, allo studio del ministro dell’Economia Giancarlo Giorgetti

Meno tasse per chi fa figli, il governo studia le ipotesi. Ecco il piano di Giorgetti

• Abbassare le tasse al ceto medio
• "Siamo consapevoli che la classe media ha un livello di tassazione troppo alto, perché chi guadagna fino a 50mila euro l'anno non può certo considerarsi 'ricco'. Abbassare le tasse al ceto medio è necessario, ma lo si deve fare con risorse da individuare ", ha dichiarato il viceministro dell'Economia Maurizio Leo
• La riduzione del secondo scaglione Irpef
• Si è parlato di una riduzione del secondo scaglione Irpef dal 35% al 33% per i redditi fino a 60 mila euro, e Leo commenta: "Abbiamo già ridotto da quattro a tre gli scaglioni Irpef . Sicuramente questa è un'ipotesi percorribile da valutare. Sarebbe un segnale positivo e in linea con gli obiettivi della riforma fiscale. Tuttavia, è sempre necessario accompagnare queste misure con altre politiche che rafforzino il potere d'acquisto, migliorino l'accesso ai servizi e incentivino l'occupazione"
• La detassazione delle tredicesime e l’anticipo del Bonus "Befana"
• Un sostegno potrebbe arrivare anche dalla detassazione delle tredicesime: "Qualora ci fosse lo spazio, è da valutare. Ad esempio, nel decreto legislativo sulle imposte dirette è contenuto il cosiddetto Bonus Befana , un'erogazione a gennaio di 100 euro per le famiglie. Non è del tutto da escludere che, questo bonus, possa essere rivisto e anticipato nel 2024", ha dichiarato Leo, sottolineando che potrebbe diventare una sorta di "bonus Babbo Natale"
• I beneficiari del Bonus Befana

Ma cosa sappiamo sul cosiddetto bonus "Befana", al momento ancora previsto per gennaio 2025?

• L'agevolazione  spetta solo ai lavoratori dipendenti che hanno un reddito complessivo non superiore a 28mila euro ; che hanno un coniuge non separato e almeno un figlio, entrambi a carico , oppure almeno un figlio a carico nel caso in cui l’altro genitore manchi o non abbia riconosciuto il figlio e, infine, che abbiano un'imposta lorda determinata sui redditi da lavoro dipendente d’importo superiore a quello delle detrazioni spettanti
• Sono perciò esclusi gli incapienti, cioè tutti i contribuenti che hanno un reddito imponibile inferiore a 8.500 euro , un paletto che lascia fuori milioni di lavoratori poveri e a part time
• Tra coloro che riceveranno il bonus, molti non riusciranno ad arrivare a prendere 100 euro a causa di alcune determinate decurtazioni  legata ai contributi Inps, dell’Irpef e delle addizionali locali
• L’aiuto alle famiglie
• Sempre a tema famiglie, il governo ha ereditato e mantenuto l'assegno unico per i figli,  che costa una ventina di miliardi l'anno : "Il governo vuole favorire la natalità. Ci sono diverse strade: o potenziare l'assegno unico o introdurre detrazioni specifiche per i figli. L'obiettivo è venire incontro alla famiglia. Questo è un tema prioritario", ha detto ancora Leo. A questo proposito è possibile che si trovi una soluzione intermedia, come introdurre detrazioni a seconda degli scaglioni di reddito
• Il potenziamento dell’Assegno unico
• Un'altra strada possibile per incentivare la natalità potrebbe essere "potenziare l'assegno unico", ha dichiarato Leo. Tra le ipotesi ci sarebbe quella di non far rientrare l'Auu nel calcolo delle Isee , almeno per le famiglie con molti figli che altrimenti si vedrebbero negato l'accesso ad altri bonus
• Il problema, però, restano le cifre: nei primi sette mesi dell'anno è costato  11,5 miliardi ed entro la fine del 2024 la spesa potrebbe arrivare molto vicina ai 19 miliardi
• Il bonus mamme
• Sembra che sarà confermato il bonus mamme , cioè la decontribuzione per le lavoratrici dipendenti che nel caso di un terzo figlio può arrivare anche a 3mila euro all’anno
• I fringe benefit
• Novità sono previste anche per quanto riguarda i fringe benefit : oggi hanno due diverse soglie di esenzione, cioè mille euro per tutti e 2mila per i lavoratori con figli . Il governo starebbe pensando di uniformare le due fasce e lasciare i 2 mila euro come unico limite

Ich kündigte meinen Job, um auf einer Superyacht zu arbeiten - und bereue nichts

Ich verzichte auf 1000 euro gehalt im monat, um als deckhelfer auf einer superyacht zu arbeiten – und bereue nichts.

Link kopiert!

Nathan Marx war Qualitätskontrolleur in Südafrika, bevor er sich entschied, als Deckhand auf einer Superyacht zu arbeiten.

Marx sagt, der Job habe mehr Wachstumspotenzial als seine frühere Arbeit und helfe ihm, tiefere Beziehungen aufzubauen.

Die Arbeit mit wohlhabenden Menschen zeige Marx, dass Erfolg erreichbar sei und Reichtum den Kern der menschlichen Natur nicht verändere.

Dieser Essay basiert auf einem Gespräch mit Nathan Marx, einer Deckhand für eine Superyacht. Er wurde gekürzt und redigiert.

Von 2020 bis Ende 2023 war ich Qualitätskontrolleur bei einem südafrikanischen Maschinenbauunternehmen, das Bergbaumaschinen herstellte. Ich hatte 132 Mitarbeiter unter mir und verdiente rund 3000 Euro im Monat.

Meine Zukunft bei dem Unternehmen war ziemlich sicher, aber mir fehlte das Abenteuergefühl und ich hatte das Gefühl, dass das Leben mehr zu bieten hat, als jeden Tag zu arbeiten und nicht so viel reisen zu können, wie ich gern gewollt hätte.

Ein Job mit mehr Abenteuer

Ich kannte einige Freunde, die nach der Schule in die Yachtbranche eingestiegen waren, und das klang sehr interessant und abenteuerlich aus. Mein früherer Job hatte lange Arbeitszeiten und war harte Arbeit, was mich für den Einstieg in die Yachtbranche gut vorbereitete. Ich begann, mich nach einer Stelle als Deckhand umzusehen. Als Deckhand ist man ein Helfer an Deck eines Schiffes, der sich unter anderem um die Reinigung und Instandhaltung kümmert, aber auch beim An- und Ablegen hilft.

Als ich im Januar dieses Jahres mit Deckhand-Zertifizierungskursen begann, erfuhr ich von diesen riesigen Yachthubs, in denen es leichter ist, Arbeit zu finden, weil sie voller Boote sind.

Einer davon war Antibes, Frankreich. Ich zog im Mai dieses Jahres dorthin und bereiste die gesamte Küste Südfrankreichs, ging täglich an den Docks entlang, erkundete die Schiffe und stellte mich vor, um einen Job zu ergattern.

Ein Job durch Tiktok

Ich begann meine Jobsuche auf Tiktok zu dokumentieren, als ich nach Frankreich aufbrach. Ich war sehr nervös, weil ich noch keinen Job hatte, und wollte mich abheben und bei meiner Jobsuche einen Schritt voraus sein. Ich liebe es außerdem, mich durch Videos auszudrücken, also ging beides Hand in Hand.

Ich lernte ein Mädchen kennen, das auf einem Schiff arbeitet, das für die Saison in Monaco lag. Sie sah meine Videos, und wir lernten uns kennen. Als sie einen Deckhand brauchten, war ich die erste Person, die sie kontaktierte. Es geht also darum, den richtigen Leute aufzufallen.

Meine Aufgabe auf der Yacht besteht darin, dafür zu sorgen, dass das Äußere des Bootes makellos ist. Alles, was mit dem Äußeren zu tun hat, vom Rumpf über das Deck bis hin zu den Möbeln draußen, ist meine Verantwortung. Es geht darum, dass es für die Gäste gut aussieht. Ich helfe auch bei der einfachen Wache, wenn die Yacht auf See ist.

Weniger Geld, aber mehr Wachstumspotenzial

Jetzt, nach drei Monaten, bin ich am unteren Ende der Nahrungskette und verdiene jeden Monat 1000 Euro weniger als in Südafrika. Aber diese Karriere hat Wachstumspotenzial und wird mich über die Grenze bringen, die ich in Südafrika in meinem Managementjob erreicht hatte.

Eine Sache, die ich beim Arbeiten auf Yachten gelernt habe, ist, dass man im selben Raum wie seine Kollegen lebt. Wenn einen etwas an einer Person stört und man schweigt, staut es sich in einem auf und vergiftet die Beziehung an Bord. Man muss eine Beziehung zu ihnen aufbauen, die viel enger ist als die eines normalen Angestellten.

Ich schätze den Job auch, weil ich nicht nur reisen und all diese verrückten Dinge erleben kann, die normale Menschen in einem Bürojob normalerweise nicht tun, sondern auch Menschen treffe und Verbindungen knüpfe, die ein Leben lang halten. Diese echte Verbindung zu Menschen gibt mir auch Befriedigung.

Ein Leben außerhalb der Branche

Ein Leben außerhalb dieser Branche könnte schwierig sein, weil jederzeit etwas passieren kann. Man hat vielleicht gerade Zeit, aber im nächsten Moment erwarten einen Gäste, und man ist plötzlich wieder eine Woche lang bei der Arbeit. Also muss alles, was man geplant hat, zurückgestellt werden.

Aber die maritime Industrie hier legt die Work-Life-Balance sehr gut fest, und ich denke, das hat mich auch zu der Yachtbranche hingezogen. Mein früherer Job liess wenig Zeit für mein Privatleben. Jetzt habe ich nach der harten Arbeit viel Freizeit und kann Dinge erleben und abschalten.

Einer meiner Lieblingsorte, die ich besucht habe, war in Korsika, Frankreich, als wir Bonifacio besuchten, eine wunderschöne kleine Stadt auf einem Hügel mit einer unfassbaren Geschichte. Wir hatten auch das Privileg, in die Altstadt zu wandern, ein tolles Erlebnis, das ich sonst wahrscheinlich nicht gehabt hätte, wenn ich nicht in der Yachtbranche gewesen wäre.

Arbeiten mit Prominenten

Ich sprach einmal mit einer Person, die seit etwa neun Jahren in der Branche ist. Er erzählte mir von Charterreisen mit Will Smith und all diesen großen A-List-Star-Namen, was sehr verlockend klang. Ich hatte noch keine solchen Erfahrungen, aber die Personen, die wir auf diesem Boot treffen, sind sehr vermögend. Die Anmietung des Schiffes, auf dem ich arbeite, kostet etwa 78.000 Euro pro Woche.

Wir hatten einmal eine Kundin mit 3,2 Millionen Instagram-Followern an Bord und führten ein normales Gespräch mit ihr. Man denkt immer, diese Leute wären anders oder besonders, aber am Ende des Tages sind sie einfach normale Menschen. Sie erwähnte ihren Erfolg kein einziges Mal. Es war so normal, dass ich überrascht war.

Es ist sehr motivierend, von solchen Menschen umgeben zu sein, weil sie einem das Gefühl geben, dass ihr Erfolg auch für einen selbst möglich ist.

Die Superyachtbranche unterscheidet sich von anderen Luxusbranchen. Die Orte, die die Menschen besuchen, sind so einzigartig, dass nicht jeder sie zu sehen bekommt. Die Kosten sind auch ziemlich hoch, einige Yachten kosten 500.000 Euro pro Woche. Der Kunde hat also eine gewisse Erwartungshaltung an den Luxus, den er erhalten möchte, und man muss sehr hohen Standards gerecht werden, die keine andere Luxusbranche hat.

Meine Karriere kann von hier aus auf viele Arten voranschreiten, und ich versuche, alle diese Wege zu erkunden. Aber die Yachtbranche ist eine enge Gemeinschaft, die mich in den letzten Monaten sehr glücklich gemacht hat, also werde ich so lange wie möglich bleiben.

Ukrainian Strikes Have Changed Russian Naval Operations in the Black Sea

Nicole Wolkov, Daniel Mealie, and Kateryna Stepanenko

December 16, 2023

Key takeaway: Ukrainian strikes against Russian Black Sea Fleet (BSF) assets have changed Russian naval operating patterns, causing the BSF to move some ships away from its main base in occupied Sevastopol, Crimea and hampering the BSF’s ability to interfere with maritime trade in the western part of the Black Sea. Ukrainian strikes have likely caused the BSF to set conditions for a more permanent basing pattern along the eastern Black Sea coast as it transfers naval assets away from Crimea and expands a small port in de facto Russian-controlled Ochamchire, Abkhazia. Ukrainian strikes against BSF assets have successfully facilitated the use of Ukraine’s Black Sea grain corridor as international support for the corridor continues to increase despite Russia’s withdrawal from the Black Sea Grain Initiative and military threats against it.

Ukrainian forces launched a successful preemptive strike campaign against the Russian BSF in the summer and fall of 2023, which aimed to disrupt Russia’s efforts to impose a de facto blockade on Ukrainian ports and to undermine the BSF’s ability to conduct naval operations in the Black Sea. In summer 2023, Russia sought to use its withdrawal from the Black Sea Grain Initiative to posture the BSF in a way that would deter Ukraine and international community from maritime activity in the Black Sea – effectively establishing a de facto blockade on Ukrainian ports without having to enforce an actual blockade. The United Nations (UN) and Turkey had originally brokered the Black Sea Grain Initiative with Russia in July 2022 that allowed cargo ships to sail between ports in Odesa Oblast and the Bosphorus Strait without fear of Russian attacks.[1] Russian officials began signaling their intent to withdraw from the Black Sea Grain Initiative in May 2023 shortly after agreeing to extend the deal until July 18, likely in an effort to set information conditions for the de facto blockade.[2] Ukrainian forces, however, began setting military conditions to prevent Russia from establishing such a de facto blockade by launching an intricate missile and drone campaign targeting BSF assets and vessels starting in June 2023.[3] The Ukrainian strike campaign inhibited Russia’s ability to use the BSF to halt maritime activity in western Black Sea and helped Ukraine deprive Russian forces of the maritime initiative in the Black Sea.

Satellite imagery indicates that Ukrainian strikes caused Russian forces to move BSF assets away from occupied Sevastopol to ports in the eastern part of the Black Sea on an enduring basis. Satellite imagery from June to December 2023 indicates that Russian forces have moved BSF assets, both surface vessels and submarines, away from the main base in Sevastopol, Crimea to the port in Novorossiysk, Krasnodar Krai, further away from Ukrainian launch points on an enduring basis and are setting conditions for a more permanent basing pattern on the eastern Black Sea coast.[4] ISW previously assessed in early October that the Ukrainian strikes successfully degraded the BSF’s ability to operate as a combined arms headquarters and to support logistics routes in southern Ukraine, although the effects on the BSF as a naval actor at the time remained unclear.[5] Satellite imagery shows, however, that Russian forces started to move naval assets away from Sevastopol on an enduring basis following Ukrainian strikes on naval infrastructure in Crimea and the BSF Command headquarters in Sevastopol on September 22, 2023.[6] Satellite imagery suggests that, although the BSF continues to base some assets at the main port in Sevastopol, the Russian military has redeployed several vessels, including surface combatants such as Krivak-class frigates and smaller vessels such as Grisha-class and Tarantul-class corvettes from Sevastopol to Novorossiysk.[7] Satellite imagery from December shows that Russian force have redeployed most of their specialized Kalibr cruise missile carriers including Admiral Grigorovich-class frigates, Buyan-M-class corvettes, and Kilo-class submarines from Sevastopol to Novorossiysk.[8] Recent satellite imagery indicates that vessels moved to Novorossiysk over the fall have not returned to Sevastopol.

ISW's estimates reflect the availability and spatial resolution of satellite imagery as well as meteorological conditions over the target areas. This table excludes auxilliary ships, amphibious ships, and most minor combatants apart from those capable of housing vertical launch systems. ISW's estimates count vessels observed in port.

Ukrainian strikes targeting BSF assets and ports have changed Russian naval operation patterns and are hindering the BSF’s ability to operate aggressively in the western part of the Black Sea. The United Kingdom Ministry of Defense (UK MoD) assessed on September 26 that Ukrainian strikes have diminished the BSF’s ability to conduct wide security patrols, carry out routine maintenance, and enforce blockades of Ukrainian ports in the western Black Sea although the BSF retained the ability to launch sea-based missile strikes.[9] The Russian military has also been unable to return two BSF vessels to the Black Sea, reportedly the Kildin Moma-class surveillance ship and the Admiral Grigorovich , lead ship of the class, because Turkey invoked the relevant provisions of the Montreux Convention blocking transit through the Turkish Straits on February 28, 2022.[10]

The BSF is permanently building a naval port near Russian-controlled Ochamchire, Abkhazia, likely signaling Russian long-term intent to move more naval assets away from Crimea. Russian-backed Abkhazian President Aslan Bzhania announced on October 5 that he had signed an agreement with Russian authorities for the construction of a permanent Russian naval base near Ochamchire, Abkhazia.[11] Deputy Chief of the Ukrainian Main Military Intelligence Directorate (GUR) Major General Vadym Skibitskyi reported on October 23 that Russian authorities started dredging and constructing port infrastructure in Ochamchire in order to construct a base for some warships currently stationed in Crimea, which could not be redeployed to Novorossiysk.[12] Bzhania stated on November 9 that Abkhaz authorities have started work to expand the Ochamchire port so that it can accommodate large-capacity vessels with a displacement of up to 13,000 tons, a notable increase from its current capacity to handle vessels with deadweight of 3,000 tons.[13] The port’s expansion will reportedly take over 2.5 years.[14] The Russian military is likely intending to develop the existing port into a subsidiary rather than a main base since the surrounding terrain largely consists of sandy beaches unsuitable for the construction of naval infrastructure.[15]

Ukrainian strikes have severely degraded Russian military efforts to disrupt the movement of commercial vessels through the Ukraine’s grain corridor. Ukraine announced that it would continue to export grain and other goods along the western coast of the Black Sea after Russia refused to renew the Black Sea Grain Initiative on July 17, 2023.[16] Russian forces launched extensive missile and drone strikes for several consecutive days against port and grain infrastructure in southern Ukraine shortly after Russia’s withdrawal to disrupt the corridor.[17] Subsequent Ukrainian strikes on Russian BSF assets and military installations in Crimea seriously undermined Russian efforts to curtail maritime traffic, however.[18] The Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) unsuccessfully attempted to discourage commercial traffic in the western Black Sea by announcing on July 19 that it would consider all ships en route to Ukrainian ports to be potential carriers of military cargo (and therefore potential military targets) and forcibly stopping and searching a commercial vessel en route to Izmail port in Odesa Oblast on August 13.[19] Persistent Ukrainian drone and missile strikes against BSF assets caused the Russians to adjust their maritime posture in a way that made these threats largely ineffective.[20]

International actors have signaled their support for the continued use of Ukraine’s Black Sea grain corridor, demonstrating that Ukrainian forces continue to successfully block Russian attempts to threaten commercial vessels from using the corridor. The Financial Times ( FT ) reported on November 15 that the Ukrainian government reached a deal with insurance broker giant Marsh McLennan to provide up to $50 million in hull and liability insurance from Lloyd’s of London firms for each vessel carrying agricultural goods through the grain corridor.[21] The West continues to show support for long-term Ukrainian naval operations that will likely strengthen Ukrainian forces’ ability to operate in the Black Sea, most recently with the December 11 announcement that the UK and Norway would lead the Maritime Capability Coalition to provide short-term assistance to Ukraine and help in long-term efforts aimed at making the Ukrainian navy more interoperable with NATO.[22]

Ukraine’s long-range strikes against BSF assets have facilitated humanitarian and military successes in the Black Sea and allowed Ukraine to seize the initiative in the Black Sea even without an effective navy of its own. US Ambassador to Ukraine Bridget Brink reported on November 13 that 100 vessels had successfully transited the corridor and exported 3.7 million tons of food and other goods, presumably since the first civilian vessel successfully departed from a Ukrainian port through the corridor on August 15.[23] Brink reported on December 15 that 256 ships have successfully used the Black Sea grain corridor and exported almost nine million tons of grain and other cargo from Ukrainian ports, suggesting that continued successful Ukrainian strikes coupled with increasing international support for Ukraine’s corridor has contributed to a dramatic increase in food exports.[24]

Western provision of additional long-range missiles to Ukraine would support ongoing Ukrainian efforts to keep the Black Sea open for maritime traffic and keep the BSF away from NATO coastlines in the Black Sea. No single Western-provided system will provide Ukraine with a decisive advantage or a direct path to victory. Consistent Ukrainian strikes have allowed Ukraine to seize the initiative in the Black Sea, prevent a Russian blockade, and curtail Russian expansion in the Black Sea, however. The increased Western provision long-range missiles would allow Ukraine to retain the initiative in the Black Sea, enabling continued military and humanitarian successes.
