Inside Putin’s tacky £100m super yacht nicknamed ‘The Killer Whale’ which Russian despot shares with his gymnast ‘lover’ – including ‘pool that turns into a dance floor’, £27k beds and workspaces for plotting war
- The Graceful was removed from Hamburg, Germany at the start of the war
Leaked photos have revealed the interior of Vladimir Putin’s tacky £100 million superyacht nicknamed ‘the Killer Whale’ – decked out with a pool that turns into a dance floor, £27,000 beds and a workspace for war-plotting.
Onboard the Russian dictator, 70, and his gymnast girlfriend, Alina Kaebaeva, 40, have separate bedrooms, Putin’s being cladded with a velvet bedspread.
The photos taken by the investigative team of the Russian president’s nemesis – jailed Alexei Navalny – revealed how while on board the vessel, called Graceful, he continues to live in luxury.
The 267ft boat, which was towed out of Hamburg to avoid Western sanctions days before the start of the war, is said to be Putin’s favourite floating love nest – even larger than his yacht Scheherazade which has been seized.
‘Putin’s houses always feature a separate bedroom for him – and another for his ‘goodwife’ Navalny’s team.

Putin’s officials deny he owns these ocean-going vessels.
