The Paleocacherian State yacht, FPS O'Ryan originally belonged to a financial criminal who ran a billion dollar ponzi scheme named Finn Ó Duinnín. When authorities arrested him and seized his properties under asset forfeiture, the yacht was sold off in a charity auction to repay his victims on May 6, 2010. Then president Caointiarn Nic Craobhaigh who was a multimillionaire entrepreneur before she ran for office, purchased the vessel with her own money on the executive branch's behalf and had it renovated to be used as a state yacht. It was given new interior decorations, a navy crew, expanded fuel tanks, some minor defense modifications like optional turrets and chaff systems, and an advanced sensor suite. It was most recently used by President Fulkerson who made state visits with it to several countries in the spring of 2020.
