The 82 metre Andrew Winch designed superyacht Sarafsa, which at the time of her construction was known as Project 54, was launched in March 2008 by the British yard Devonport Yachts. The owner of Sarafsa previously owned a 54 metre Amels, now called Faribana V. Both yachts feature the same unusual styled stern, painted to make it look like it is a wooden stern Powered by twin MTU engines she has a top speed of 16.5 knots and a cruising speed of 14 knots. The owner keeps his yacht very private, and there are no photos of her interior, which is also designed by Andrew Winch. Here she is pictured arriving in Gibraltar.<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/142600/image/large-f5439dd0b6a8d84440d9f4f2ce9efc14.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/142600"><img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/142601/image/large-b2d6d2775454893721deae23dc75bc92.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/142601">

She features a bold exterior profile, characterised by a muscular reverse sheer to the bow, chiselled contours and dark horizontal strip windows.Designed and built for an experienced owner, Project 823 radiates strength in her profile. The steel and aluminium yacht features uninterrupted lines from bow to stern and wide windows, creating a unique silhouette while showcasing her poise and grace on the water.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/271482/image/large-c43eb53e809ce6365b05f44ec0849f93.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/271482">The interior of Project 823 is simple yet sophisticated and boasts natural tones, light wood veneers, and organic forms.

A key highlight onboard is her expansive sundeck area with a central lounge zone protected from the elements by a glass windbreak and a hardtop. Wide side windows and nine skylights in the roof also ensure that views will be uninterrupted, while her radar mast was engineered to span these glass skylights, supported by flat panel satellite hardware for broadband internet.The tenders onboard Project 823 have been stored behind the high bulwarks on the foredeck, to cleverly free up space on the lower deck for a large wellness area and gym located in the stern area.

The Yemeni Coast Guard (YCG) has now issued an official statement outlining the details of the gunfight that took place between the superyacht, two YCG’s vessels and a Yemeni Navy patrol vessel.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/39946/image/large-295e003c96e46db73970c3381681ae45.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/39946">Previous reports published by online publisher AP News stated that guards onboard <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1737" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Kalizma50.29m (164'12&quot;)Ramage & Ferguson1906">Kalizma</a> mistook the Yemeni Coast Guard for pirates. But the yacht's manager Aashim Mongia said there was absolutely no case of "mistaken identity.”Owner Shirish Saraf has publicly stated that <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1737" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Kalizma50.29m (164'12&quot;)Ramage & Ferguson1906">Kalizma</a> was en route to Egypt, when he claims that she was pursued by pirates for between four and five hours. Three security guards were onboard at the time of the incident when a gunfight broke out, with eyewitnesses onboard <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1737" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Kalizma50.29m (164'12&quot;)Ramage & Ferguson1906">Kalizma</a> reporting over 150 rounds fired.The YCG refutes these claims, stating that “patrol boats introduced themselves and tried to communicate with the yacht via the VHF radio-bridge to bridge COMMS, but the yacht captain did not respond to the repeated calls.”&nbsp;The Yemeni Coast Guard claims that <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1737" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Kalizma50.29m (164'12&quot;)Ramage & Ferguson1906">Kalizma</a> was not flying a flag and was sailing in Yemeni territorial waters, about six nautical miles from the coast. The patrol boats approached the yacht in an attempt to attract the attention of the crew to respond to the VHF communication.According to the YCG statement, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1737" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Kalizma50.29m (164'12&quot;)Ramage & Ferguson1906">Kalizma</a> started to increase speed and heavily fired at the Yemeni Law enforcement boats. The Yemeni Law enforcement vessels fired back, and it is reported that this resulted in the death of one Yemeni soldier, others wounded and damage to the vessels.A pursuit ensued, with <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1737" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Kalizma50.29m (164'12&quot;)Ramage & Ferguson1906">Kalizma</a> sailing towards international waters and according to the YCG, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1737" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Kalizma50.29m (164'12&quot;)Ramage & Ferguson1906">Kalizma</a> “issued a false distress call.” As a result of this, the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) issued an “attack” warning, but with clarification from YCG, it was downgraded from attack to incident.The manager of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1737" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Kalizma50.29m (164'12&quot;)Ramage & Ferguson1906">Kalizma</a> claims that an aircraft was able to identify multiple pirate skiffs operating under the guise of the Yemeni Coast Guard in the area, and that at least two other distress calls regarding piracy were made from merchant ships also in the area.Pictures taken onboard <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1737" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Kalizma50.29m (164'12&quot;)Ramage & Ferguson1906">Kalizma</a> show the yacht has sustained significant damage and bullet holes to both her interior and exterior. Medical assistance was sent to the yacht and no other injuries were reported onboard.According to the YCG, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1737" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Kalizma50.29m (164'12&quot;)Ramage & Ferguson1906">Kalizma</a> was sailing with a crew of nine onboard, including the captain, all of Indian nationality. As well as this, there were three security guards onboard, two Indian and one Greek. The YCG also reports that they had modern automatic weapons and snipers.The Yemeni Coast Guard said that “the Yemeni government reserves its rights regarding what resulted from the incident, as the yacht entered the territorial waters of Yemen and was sailing without showing a flag. The statement also says that <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1737" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Kalizma50.29m (164'12&quot;)Ramage & Ferguson1906">Kalizma</a> refused to respond to the law enforcement assets and stop, which is “clear violation of international maritime law and the rules of innocent passage.”The statement concludes that <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1737" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Kalizma50.29m (164'12&quot;)Ramage & Ferguson1906">Kalizma</a> did not “have any justification nor right to use arms and ammunition,” and that they were warned more than once that the vessels were the Yemen law enforcement agencies, YCG &amp; Navy. “The crew onboard were all in military dress and the boats were of naval design, not of a traditional fishing boat design.”<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1737" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Kalizma50.29m (164'12&quot;)Ramage & Ferguson1906">Kalizma</a> features exterior design by <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/275" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="G.L.
