A lawsuit filed by Cecil Wright & Partners alleges that N. Storonskis, an individual reportedly valued at $18.8 billion by Forbes, engaged in tax avoidance concerning the purchase of a yacht named “Nixie.” Reports indicate that the legal action centers on the claim that Storonskis circumvented withholding taxes related to the acquisition. According to court documents cited by The Irish Times, the sequence of events suggests that Storonskis’s family office adviser initially engaged a broker in October 2024 to facilitate the construction of the yacht.
By 2025, the inquiry reportedly shifted to a direct question regarding the immediate purchase of a vessel. Cecil Wright & Partners specifically claims that the transaction involved a 102-meter yacht constructed by the German superyacht yard, Lürssen. Further complicating the matter are details presented by R.
Janutien. Citing data from the luxury magazine Robb Report, Janutien noted that the yacht in question had no prior public record, and the name “Revolut” was mentioned in connection with the vessel. These conflicting reports suggest discrepancies regarding the yacht’s background and the nature of the transaction involving Storonskis.
The ongoing litigation brought forth by Cecil Wright & Partners seeks to clarify the financial mechanisms surrounding the acquisition of the high-value yacht.
