Failed Super Yacht Attack in Corsica

On Tuesday July 30 in the morning, a 43-year-old resident of Corsica armed with a knife boarded the 41 metre super yacht Legenda. Chartering Russian nationalities, m/y Legenda was located less to one nautical mile away from the Port of Taverna in the North East side of Corsica. The crew and guests disarmed the 43 year old man who was then arrested and taken to the Police office in South Corsica for questions.  Piracy and yacht attacks are very rare in the Med but unfortunately a couple news do show out every season.
Motor Yacht Legenda is a Mondomarine 41 meters build in 2009 to a design of Cor D.Rover and sold to her current ownership in 2014. Legenda can accommodate twelve guests in six cabins, and is powered by twin MTU 2250hp which give a top speed of nineteen knots and a cruise of fourteen.
