The Russian Sailing Ship Valentin is a Russian Coffee Ship used by Valentin Pivovarov during his career, then given to his son Aleksey when he wanted to take up sailing. During the Gambian front of the Kepelkeker Farms Scandal it was stolen by Aleksey's cousin Yosef Romanov and used to take Gambian Coffee to the United States. After the war, Aleksey regained control of the ship but its main user became Stevie "Wonder" Johnston, the one who directly brought the coffee to the US.
