A 30-meter vessel sank following a fire scare. All passengers were rescued safely.
A luxury yacht valued at €8 million and measuring 30 meters in length sank off Porto Cervo in Sardinia. The vessel, named "Angiola II," had been delivered to its owner only four days prior.
According to sources, the incident occurred due to a engine failure that led to a fire scare in the engine room. Fourteen people were on board at the time of the sinking and were later rescued unharmed.
The boat now rests at a depth of about seven meters, located between Isola dei Cappuccini and Capo Ferro. The situation was handled without panic, and all passengers managed to escape safely.
Authorities are monitoring the situation and will provide further updates regarding the causes of the incident and the recovery operations.
