In the Karelian wilderness, an elite yacht worth over a million euros was parked

An unusual find was made by the residents of Karelia on September 15: in the middle of the forest was discovered motor yacht Nord Star 49. Footage from the scene quickly spread on social media.

As it turned out later, the ship was heading from Petrozavodsk to Belomorkanal, but in the Medvezhyegorsky district the driver failed to control the turn, as a result of which the yacht piled on the shore and got stuck between the trees.

The hull of the ship remained intact, and people were not injured in the accident. Currently, experts are engaged in an operation to return the yacht to the water for subsequent transportation to the repair dock.

Nord Star 49 is a top model of Finnish production with a length of more than 15 meters. The vessel is equipped with three cabins, a pair of bathrooms and a spacious flybridge. The powerful Volvo Penta engines allow speeds of up to 37 knots. As for the price, the base cost of such a model at the shipyard starts from almost a million euros, and in the top configuration reaches 1.2 million. Taking into account logistics and customs duties, according to Yachts Expert experts, in Russia the price tag for such a vessel can vary from 41 to 57 million rubles.
