M/Y Yogi was a motor yacht, finished in 2011 by the Turkish builder Proteksan Turquoise, at a length of 60.2 metres (198 ft) and price tag of US$39m.[1] Designed by Jean Guy Verges and capable of accommodating up to 12 guests in 6 double cabins, with an owner's suite of 75 square metres (810 sq ft),[2] she was the largest yacht ever registered under the French flag.[3]

She sank on 17 February 2012 in the Aegean Sea, less than 20 nautical miles (37 km; 23 mi) off the coast of the Greek island of Skyros, while on her return voyage from warranty repairs at the builder's to France, after the crew of 8 had been safely evacuated.[4][1]
