Yet another reason not to have a yacht so large that you need crew.
A Ukrainian ship's engineer who has worked in the engine room of a super yacht for 10-years apparently took offense at his boss's job: selling arms to Putin, some of which are undoubtedly being used in Ukraine.
As the saying goes - payback is a bitch. He opened a pair of thru-hulls in an effort to sink the yacht off Majorca, though only damage turned out to be the engine room was flooded and engine was destroyed. Hopefully, the owner's accounts are frozen and repair will be difficult.

The engineer was arrested in Majorca and deported. He is excited to pick-up arms against Russia. You gotta love the zeal of the Ukrainians.
