Man who had the world’s biggest homemade yacht stolen fought to secure its return

Clyde Stires built the world’s biggest homemade yacht, but his accomplishment took a shocking turn when the yacht was stolen by a cartel.

After spending five years creating the massive 100-foot yacht from scratch, Clyde’s hard work was ripped away from him.

The cartel not only stole the yacht but also kidnapped his crew.

Determined not to let his incredible creation slip away, Clyde fought fiercely to secure its return.

Fighting the battle to reclaim the homemade yacht

Despite receiving advice from the government not to press charges, Clyde refused to give up.

He took matters into his own hands and even requested help from the Mexican navy to retrieve the stolen yacht.

However, the process was far from simple. The yacht, now damaged and locked up as evidence, was out of Clyde’s reach.

The entire story, including the details of the theft and his efforts to recover it, is documented in full on his YouTube channel, Clyde E S.

Undeterred, Clyde drove four hours into the desert to meet with a powerful individual who could help him access it.

After a lengthy legal battle and numerous setbacks, Clyde finally managed to reclaim the yacht.

After all, who would want to give up so easily on something that took five years of dedication and a huge part of their wealth?

The yacht was sold later

Clyde liquidated all his assets and even bought a home with space, enough to build the homemade yacht.

On top of that, before starting the project, Clyde had no prior experience in building a yacht.

From mere sketches to a luxury yacht, it was like a dream come true for him.

Sadly, however, he realized it wasn’t safe to stay in Mexico, so he made the difficult decision to sell the homemade yacht.

Still, that’s far better than letting a cartel keep such a priceless possession.
