The yacht «Selenga» owned by billionaire Oleg Deripaska cannot leave Ulan-Ude. According to local media, the vessel «is stuck» in the port of the city due to insufficient water level.
According to Vasily Semennikov, head of the Baikal-Selenginsk waterways and navigation district, the boat is docked in Smolin Street. For the boat to continue on its way the water level has to rise by 30 centimeters. As soon as it happens «Selenga» will be sent to Irkutsk.
To clarify, the yacht was launched on August 19, 2014. Her construction was started in 2007, was rumored to have cost about 400 million rubles and involved a number of economic and financial difficulties. It is known that the vessel is 50 meters long and has a capacity of 12 guests and 12-16 crew members. Among the features of the floating residence are a gym with tatami, a cinema hall and a sauna with a small swimming pool.
