About SALUZI
View all yachts for charter
As the day begins, make your way to breakfast on the main deck aft where there is a range of dining tables that offer a more intimate mood to large group mealtimes. The deck crew are ready to take you on a diving and snorkelling expedition to a nearby coral reef that is teeming with sea life; SALUZI’s shallow draft means she can even venture among coral reefs and closer to the shore than most yachts of her size. Then take a spin on the dizzying array of watertoys, from the various jetskis, jet board, towables, waterskiing and wakeboarding gear to leisurely options like paddleboards and a glass bottomed kayak.
The crew are renowned for their beach BBQs, so you are whisked by tender to a secluded tropical shoreline to experience one first hand, with fun activities, cool cocktails and freshly grilled delicacies on tap. After lunch is over, everyone heads back to SALUZI for the afternoon; it is impossible to run out of to things to do, whether you crave privacy or convivial fun.
The sun deck is always inviting, with two jacuzzis and endless options for lounging both in the sun and shade. With your workout in the gym complete, an afternoon of pampering in the salon and wet spa is calling, while the children are occupied by fun party games in the upper deck lounge before an early dinner and open air movie night on the sun deck.
SALUZI’s stunning Luiz de Basto design is reminiscent of a hip Miami hotel; it is bold, bright and uplifting, with eye-catching pops of colour and original modern art. There are two plush master suites on the bridge deck, six VIP suites on upper and one on main deck alongside seven well appointed double cabins.
As the sun sets on the beautiful tropical scenery, elegant cocktails and canapes are served on the bridge deck, where you drift between the piano bar lounge and the expansive views of the exterior, with sumptuous sofas and high tables creating the mood of a chic city rooftop bar. After a remarkable Asian fusion dinner, you head to the main deck lounge where karaoke has been set up for your own private talent show, and you party the night away in luxurious style.

The Saluzi Story: Art-Inspired Superyacht That Costs $500,000 a Week
In the market for a yacht charter that stands out? Look no further. This seaside retreat pays homage to mystical Chinese culture. Named after an emperor’s warhorse, Saluzi boasts a remarkable street art graffiti display that was painted by contemporary artist, Li Jiwei. Talk about curb appeal. Just wait until you catch a glimpse of the 226-foot yacht from afar. Once inside, the story unfolds with art pieces that mimic the grandiose exterior. If you’re willing to pay $500,000 a week, it’s yours to charter.
The yacht can entertain up to 200 guests and sleeps 35. It’s powered by MTU engines, so it reaches a top speed of 12 knots, a cruising speed of 9 knots, and a range of 4500 nautical miles. Luxe inclusions on board are a beach club with a signature spa facility, two jacuzzi tubs, an outdoor cinema, a casino table, and an eco-friendly driving range. Not to mention, it offers a superbly-decorated VIP cabin for those who prefer finer accommodations.
Guests receive a welcome drink upon arrival to encourage a state of relaxation. Once inside, lavish interiors by the impressive Miami-based Luiz Basto stun. Some might compare the experience to quietly perusing a modern art gallery in LA. A clean and minimal aesthetic is juxtaposed by eccentric art pieces in hues of red, pink, and blue. Ultra-plush sectionals ground the space and suggest a welcoming and approachable style – details that all make sense when considering its Asian influence.
Saluzi has no shortage of patrons ready to be amused. The yacht arrived in Doha this past November and fetched a group of World Cup fans to experience the mega event from the sea. An impressive staff of 35 made the gathering an ultra-lavish and seamless affair. Similarly, CNN took part in a tour of the superyacht around the same time to report on its unique and stunning mastery.
Saluzi was originally built by Austal to serve as a cruise ship, but it was transformed into a yacht in 2014. Arguably the world’s most colorful vessel, Saluzi is available for charter year-round.

Russia's war in Ukraine
By Jessie Yeung , Brad Lendon , Amy Woodyatt, Sana Noor Haq, Emma Tucker , Angela Dewan , Adrienne Vogt and Joe Ruiz , CNN
What's it like being the family of Alexey Navalny?
From CNN's Foren Clark
The family of Russian dissident Alexey Navalny has always supported his efforts to combat Russian President Vladimir Putin’s corrupt leadership. Navalny’s wife, Yulia Navalnaya , and their children, Dasha and Zakhar, have had to watch Navalny face arrests, violence, and even an attack on his own life.
In August 2020, Navalny’s family got the call that he had taken ill on a flight from Siberia to Moscow and was undergoing treatment.
“To have your dad, an opposition leader, being poisoned by we don’t know what, we don’t know how, we don’t know when, and just be in a random hospital, it was just … it was surreal, it was literally like a book,” Dasha said.
Yulia Navalnaya quickly made her way to the hospital where Navalny was being treated and began putting public and international pressure on the Russian government to allow him to be medically evacuated to Germany.
She described the fear she had when she first arrived at the hospital and was physically barred from seeing her husband. “I thought since he was all alone, the [Federal Security Service] and Putin would make the most of the situation and try to make sure he’s dead.”
Her efforts to secure his release, which included sending a personal letter to Putin himself, eventually paid off – and may have saved Navalny’s life. His sudden illness was later tied to exposure to the nerve agent Novichok.
After a long recovery in Germany, Navalny announced that he would return to Russia in January 2020. His family once again faced the possibility of losing him, this time to arrest and detainment, but they understood that Navalny’s mission was more important than their worry.
“There was a point a year ago, where my dad was almost not there for my high school graduation. He was in jail once again and, like, the whole day I was just thinking about how [he] would’ve been proud to see me walk on the stage and get my certificate. And he wouldn’t get that option, because he was in jail for doing the right thing,” Dasha said before her father made his return to Russia. “I know that my dad misses Russia, even though it’s scary to go back. And if he didn’t go back, I would say you need to go back and fight. It’s something worth fighting for.”
Navalny was immediately arrested after his plane landed in Moscow, and he has been a prisoner ever since. In March, he was sentenced to another nine years in jail after being convicted on fraud charges, according to the Russian-owned state news agency TASS.
The director of the CNN film “Navalny," Daniel Roher, who spent time with the entire family while following Navalny’s story for the film, described how their support allows Navalny to continue with his mission.
“It is like the entire family has this iron spine, their character is extraordinary, and I think … the foundation for his strength is the strength of his extraordinary wife Yulia and their children,” Roher said. “Everyone believes in what he’s doing, and everyone supports the sacrifice that he’s making.
Although they have faced violence and harassment of their own, Navalny’s family continues to support his anti-corruption message, and they express their pride in his accomplishments.
Dasha wrote on Instagram : “I am very proud of my dad, and I am glad that his incredible story of the last few years will be told.”

Zelensky says US secretary of state and defense secretary will visit Kyiv on Sunday
From CNN's Mohammed Tawfeeq and Jonny Hallam in Atlanta
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin will visit the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv tomorrow.
"I don't think this is a secret that people from the US are coming to us tomorrow, State Secretary Mr. Blinken and the defense secretary (Lloyd Austin) who are coming to us," Zelensky said at a press conference held in an underground subway station in Kyiv.
Zelensky also said, "we will be expecting, when the security will allow, the President of the United States to come and to talk to us."
CNN has reached out to the US Department of Defense and Department of State for comment. The White House declined to comment on the potential trip.
US President Joe Biden said last week that he was still working with his team to determine whether he should dispatch a senior member of his administration to Ukraine.
On Sunday, many Ukrainians will observe Easter, in accordance with the Julian calendar.
UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson visited Zelensky in Kyiv on April 9.
A Q&A with Navalny's right-hand woman
From CNN's Janelle Davis
CNN spoke with Maria Pevchikh, the head of the investigative department for Alexey Navalny's Anti-Corruption Foundation . She's also an executive producer of CNN's film "Navalny."
Here’s what she said:
Q: What can Navalny's story tell us about Russian President Vladimir Putin and the Russian regime, as we watch this war that they started?
A: It's a pretty good prequel. It explains a lot, actually. This film gives a lot of context and it explains how we ended up at this point in time and where Putin is invading countries and killing people, and kind of gets away with it.
Q: You've been keeping the Anti-Corruption Foundation running since Navalny was arrested. Why is it important to keep this work going?
A: It's not only me. There are dozens of other people who work with us.
It's a matter of principle for us just continue our work despite the fact that Alexey is in prison. This is exactly what Putin wanted to happen. Putin wanted to imprison Navalny and destroy his work – stop our investigations, stop our political work, stop everything. For us, it is a matter of principle to show Vladimir Putin and whoever is responsible for this that this is not going to work. That we're going to continue our work and we're going to work harder and more than we did before. And we intend to keep going as long as it takes.
Q: As the head of investigations at this foundation, what have you uncovered recently?
A: This month, we’ve done two. There was an investigation that we did about the yacht Scheherazade. It is parked somewhere in Italy, and it has no owner. I think it is the 11th or 12th most expensive yacht in the world. No one knows to whom it belongs to. In our investigation, we proved that it belongs to Vladimir Putin.
And last week, we published an investigation about Valery Gergiev, a Russian conductor and classical musician, who is very famous and a frequent guest at places like the Metropolitan Opera and Grand Opera. He is not only a very famous musician, but a prominent supporter of Putin and Putin's war. So, we did a big investigation into how Valery Gergiev gets paid for publicly whitewashing Putin abroad.
Q: Navalny was recently sentenced to more time in prison. What do you think the future holds for him? Will he be able to get out of this prison?
A: I think that those numbers mean nothing. He can be sentenced to nine years to 99 years to 900 years. It is virtually meaningless.
Navalny’s case is purely political. Vladimir Putin decided to throw him into jail indefinitely. So as many people say, Navalny's sentence is essentially a life sentence. The question is whose life it will be? I'm pretty sure that Navalny is going to stay in prison probably until Putin leaves the office, until Putin is removed from power. Our mission is to make sure that this day comes as quickly as possible and Alexey is out of prison as soon as possible.
Q: We learn in this documentary what Navalny's vision is for Russia, what he imagined the future will be. Do you expect that Russia will ever come to fruition?
A: Absolutely. That's the plan. That's what we are working on for many years. It would be strange if we did something for a decade that we didn't believe in and we didn't believe that it was possible.
I am convinced that the so-called “beautiful Russia of the future” – this is how Alexey refers to it – it is indeed possible. It is achievable and attainable, and yes, it will take a lot of effort and a lot of work to make sure that it materializes but there are so many people, so many Russians who are willing to do this work, who are willing to risk their life, their careers, their everything, just to make sure that Russia one day becomes a free and democratic country.
Zelensky: Ukraine will stop negotiations if Russia kills people in Mariupol and organizes "pseudo" referendums
From CNN's Radina Gigova and Adrienne Vogt
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Saturday that if Ukrainians in the besieged city of Mariupol are killed by Russian forces, and if Russia organizes "pseudo" referendums in occupied territories, Ukraine will stop negotiations with the Russian side.
Zelensky also reiterated his willingness to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin, saying "I don't have a right to be afraid" as the Ukrainian people have shown they are not afraid of the Russian military.
"As for the topic of the meeting with the president of Russia, yes, I would like to start to finalize the war. There is a diplomatic way, and there is the military way. So any healthy and sane person always chooses diplomatic way, because he or she knows even if it's hard, it may stop the losses of thousands, of tens of thousands. And with such neighbors, hundreds of thousands and maybe millions of victims," he said, via translated remarks, while holding a press conference in an underground subway station.
While Zelensky said he's "not afraid" to meet with Putin, it's difficult to trust what Russia says.
"There is no trust to Russia. Those are not synonyms, those are antonyms: Russia and trust. Because they're just saying something, and their words do not coincide with actions," he said.
Zelensky said possible future negotiations in Turkey depend on Putin, and the Ukranian president reiterated his willingness to participate in talks.
Zelensky also said Kyiv is "in permanent contact" with Ukrainians in Mariupol but couldn't share details about the messaging. "These are our people and our town," he said.
Zelensky said eight people, including a baby, were killed in missile strikes in the southern port city of Odesa on Saturday.
Ukraine claims strike on command post kills 2 Russian generals, according to military intelligence service
From CNN's Nathan Hodge and Kostan Nechyporenko
The Chief Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine issued a statement Saturday claiming that a strike on a Russian command post in the southern Kherson region killed two Russia generals.
"On April 22, 2022, the Armed Forces of Ukraine struck a devastating blow at a forward command post of the 49th Combined Arms Army of Russian occupation troops located a short distance from the battle line in the Kherson region," the statement said. "The result: The Field Control Point of the 49th Combined Arms Army was destroyed. Two occupier generals were eliminated, and one was seriously wounded and evacuated in critical condition."
CNN could not immediately verify that claim or that casualties may have been inflicted on that unit. Several Russian generals have been killed in Ukraine, with military observers and analysts saying that communication issues and a top-down command style have forced Russia's top officers to move forward to resolve tactical issues.
The Russian defense ministry did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
"I want to see the sun": Women and children in Azovstal steelworks bunker for months as Mariupol besieged
From CNN's Sarah Diab
For women and children stuck in the bunker of the Azovstal steelworks, daylight is a rarity.
"I want to get out of here and see the sun. We’ve been here for two months now and I want to see the sun," said one boy.
As the barrage of Mariupol continues , the plant is among the last significant holdouts of Ukrainian forces in the city and is sheltering hundreds of soldiers and civilians.
"Because they switch the lights on and off here. When they rebuild our houses we can live in peace. Let Ukraine win this war because Ukraine is our dear home," he added.
Some background: Ukrainian officials have said more than 100,000 people still remain in Mariupol. The Russian government claims to control the strategic port, but Ukrainian fighters remain holding out in the city's massive Azovstal steelworks.
On Friday, Russian troops also continued to launch air strikes on Mariupol and restrict Ukrainian units in the area of the Azovstal plant.
The situation at the Azovstal steel plant in Mariupol is “close to a catastrophe," Yuriy Ryzhenkov, the CEO of the company that owns the plant, told CNN on Thursday.
“When the war started we had stocked quite a good stocks of food and water in the bomb shelters and the facilities at the plant so for some period of time the civilians, they were able to use it and basically survive on that. Unfortunately all the things, they tend to run out, especially the food and daily necessities. I think now it’s close to a catastrophe there,” Ryzhenkov, who runs Metinvest Holding, told CNN's Julia Chatterly on the " First Move " podcast.
Ryzhenkov said originally there had been enough supplies for two to three weeks but they were almost eight weeks into the blockade. He added that those still there “were not giving up.”
Evacuation corridor "thwarted": The evacuation of civilians from the besieged Ukrainian city of Mariupol has been "thwarted" by the Russian military, an adviser to the mayor of Mariupol said on his official Telegram account Saturday.
At 11 a.m. local time (4 a.m. ET) Saturday, at least 200 residents had gathered near a shopping center in Mariupol, waiting to be evacuated to Zaporizhzhia. But "instead of the buses promised by the Russian side, the Russian military approached the Mariupol residents and ordered them to leave because 'there will be shelling now,'" Petro Andriushchenko said.
"We don't realize how strong we actually are": How Alexey Navalny became Russia's opposition leader
From CNN's Paul LeBlanc
Russian opposition leader. Anti-corruption campaigner. Assassination attempt survivor. Prisoner.
Alexey Navalny's crusade against the Kremlin has brought him many labels.
And with the eyes of the world now on Russian President Vladimir Putin amid his brutal invasion of Ukraine, Navalny's message of resistance is finding new weight inside and outside of Russia, even as he remains behind bars.
"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good people to do nothing," he says, reprising the famous quote of unknown origin, in the new CNN film "Navalny," which premieres this Sunday, April 24, at 9 p.m. ET on CNN. "So don't be inactive."
Here's what you need to know about Navalny's political rise, attempted assassination and future in Russia:
Rise to prominence Navalny first gained visibility in 2008, when he started blogging about alleged corruption within Russian state-run companies. By 2011, he had emerged as one of the leaders of the massive protests that had broken out after allegations of fraud in parliamentary elections.
"Those who have gathered here can kick these thieved ass***** out of the Kremlin tomorrow," Navalny said at one 2011 protest.
He posted his first YouTube video, a step-by-step instruction guide showing how to build an "agitation cube," a boxlike tent structure with his image emblazoned on the side, in July 2013. The clip marked the start of the Russian dissident's campaign to be elected Moscow mayor, and the humble beginning of his YouTube revolution.
But his movement was blunted when he was convicted on embezzlement charges, just as he was preparing to run for mayor. Navalny has denied the charges and called them politically motivated. A retrial in 2017 barred him from running for public office — this time for president against Putin.
While Navalny is most well known as an activist, it's his investigations that have been the biggest thorn in the side of some of Russia's powerful people. His videos about the apparent unexplained wealth of top government officials have particularly raised the ire of the Kremlin.
One video about former Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev drew more than 35 million views on YouTube.
But with increased results came increased risks. In March 2017, that video lit a spark under the biggest anti-government protests Russia had seen in years. Thousands joined rallies in almost 100 cities across Russia. Navalny himself was arrested and jailed for 15 days.
The following month, he was splashed with an antiseptic green dye, damaging his vision in one eye.
"Listen, I've got something very obvious to tell you. You're not allowed to give up. If they decide to kill me, it means that we are incredibly strong," Navalny said to his supporters in the CNN film.
"We need to utilize this power, to not give up, to remember we are a huge power that is being oppressed by these bad dudes. We don't realize how strong we actually are," he continued.
Poisoning and recovery By 2020, there were signs that the ground was shifting beneath Navalny's opposition movement.
The Kremlin had taken on a more publicly confrontational posture toward its chief critic, culminating in accusations of a poisoning attempt in August of that year.
Navalny had started feeling unwell on a return flight to Moscow from the Siberian city of Tomsk. Loud groaning can be heard in video footage apparently recorded on the flight he took. More video apparently recorded through the airplane window showed an immobile man being taken by wheeled stretcher to a waiting ambulance.
Navalny was treated at a Berlin hospital, and the German government later concluded he had been poisoned with a chemical nerve agent from the Novichok group.
A joint investigation by CNN and the group Bellingcat implicated the Russian Security Service (FSB) in Navalny's poisoning, piecing together how an elite unit at the agency had followed Navalny's team throughout a trip to Siberia, when Navalny fell ill from exposure to Novichok.
The investigation also found that this unit, which included chemical weapons experts, had followed Navalny on more than 30 trips to and from Moscow since 2017. Russia denies involvement in Navalny's poisoning. Putin himself said in December that if Russian security services had wanted to kill Navalny, they "would have finished" the job.
Nevertheless, several Western officials and Navalny himself have openly blamed the Kremlin.
"It's impossible to believe it. It's kind of stupid that the whole idea of poisoning with a chemical weapon, what the f**k?" Navalny says in the new CNN film. "This is why this is so smart, because even reasonable people they refuse to believe like, what? Come on ... poisoned? Seriously?"
News that Navalny had fallen gravely ill sent a fresh shock wave through Russian society, raising worrying parallels with some of the more brazen political killings in Russia's recent past.
Western governments, independent researchers and Russia watchers have noted a consistent pattern of Russian state involvement in assassinations both inside Russia and abroad.

Mariupol evacuation "thwarted" by Russian military, Ukrainian city official says
From CNN's Nathan Hodge in Lviv and Radina Gigova in London
The evacuation of civilians from the besieged Ukrainian city of Mariupol has been "thwarted" by the Russian military, an adviser to the mayor of Mariupol said on his official Telegram account Saturday.
The Russian military brought buses to another location about 200 meters away from the agreed evacuation point, and when residents had already been loaded on the buses, they were told they'll be evacuated to the city of Dokuchaevsk, "i.e. in the occupied territories," Andriushchenko said.
"People were not given the right to leave the bus. When asked why, the answer was 'nationalists fired on the evacuation point.' That is another lie," Andriushchenko said.
"Yes, once again, the Russians disrupted the evacuation. Brazenly using the efforts of Mariupol residents to return home and the honesty of the Ukrainian army in a ceasefire to organize their own plans," he added.
The Ukrainian parliament also tweeted that the evacuation was "disrupted."
"About 200 Mariupol residents were going to leave, but when they arrived at the assembly point, the [Russian] military told them to disperse because 'there will be shelling now'," according to the parliament's official account.
At least 5 reported killed in missile strikes on southern Ukrainian city of Odesa, according to official
From CNN's Yulia Kesaieva and Nathan Hodge in Lviv
Five civilians died and 18 were wounded in Russian missile strikes on the southern port city of Odesa, according to a senior Ukrainian official, as another official denounced them as "Easter gifts from Putin."
"Five Ukrainian citizens were killed and 18 wounded," Andriy Yermak, the head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, said in a statement. "These are only those who were found. And most likely, there will be more."
Yermak said one of the dead was a 3-month-old baby, adding: "A child who had to celebrate his first Easter with his parents. Nothing is sacred. Absolutely. Evil will be punished."
Many Ukrainians celebrate Easter according to the Julian calendar, with Easter Sunday falling this year on April 24.
Anton Gerashchenko, an adviser to the minister of internal affairs of Ukraine, said Russian forces launched at least six cruise missiles at Odesa.
"City residents heard the blasts in different districts of the city. These were the rockets strikes as well as the work of our air-defense system," he said.
Gerashchenko added that at least one missile had landed and exploded, residential buildings were hit and one person was burned inside their car in the yard of one of the buildings.
In a statement on Telegram, Odesa City Council Deputy Petro Obukhov called the missile strikes "Easter gifts from Putin."
Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba condemned the strikes, saying, "The only aim of Russian missile strikes on Odesa is terror. Russia must be designated a state sponsor of terrorism and treated accordingly. No business, no contacts, no cultural projects. We need a wall between civilization and barbarians striking peaceful cities with missiles."
Ukrainian officials have warned of potential Russian attacks during Easter holiday observances in Ukraine. Russian President Vladimir Putin recently claimed Russian forces have "liberated" the Azov Sea port of Mariupol, although Ukrainian defenders are holding out in a massive steel works in the city.
Ukraine's Air Command South said in a separate statement that missiles also struck a military facility and were launched by Russian bombers:
"Today ... the air defense group of the South Air Command conducted combat operations to destroy enemy cruise missiles launched by Russia's TU-95 strategic aircraft from the Caspian Sea," the statement said. "During the engagement, warriors of anti-aircraft missile units destroyed two enemy cruise missiles (preliminary X555 or X101), which struck the city of Odesa and two operational-tactical level UAVs, which presumably corrected the trajectory of cruise missiles and placed active obstacles to the air-defense system of the Armed Forces of Ukraine."
