Yacht fire in Marina Kastela: five yachts destroyed and millions of euros in damage
A yacht fire in Marina Kastela, Croatia, occurred on Saturday night destroying 5 yachts and damaging 18. Fortunately, no one was injured.
An unprecedented fire broke out last night around 8:30 pm on one of the yachts anchored in Marina Kastela. Five luxury boats about 20 meters long were completely burned. The damage will be millions of euros.
In an instant, a fire broke out on a yacht for reasons yet to be determined. The crew members tried to put out the fire immediately, but unfortunately, to no avail.
After the ropes burned on the fire-stricken yacht, the ship began to float around millions of other anchored yachts, and the flames soon engulfed the other ships.
Three of the five boats were taken from Marina Kastela into the bay, where two were completely burned and sank on the seabed, one was towed to a nearby beach, and two burned on a pontoon in the marina.
