After another, larger yacht also named Dilbar had been built for Usmanov in 2016, the original Dilbar was renamed to Ona and put up for sale.[2] In 2018, the yacht had reportedly been sold to a Middle Eastern buyer and has been renamed Al Raya.[3] The new owners are the Royal Family of Bahrain.[4]
Al Raya's exterior was designed by Tim Heywood and her interior by Alberto Pinto.[5]
