Yacht on the rocks

The "Senera" was reported to have landed bow-up on the rocks, 20 nautical miles east of Sharm El Sheikh in the Red Sea, 20 nautical miles east of the popular Egyptian holiday resort, on Aug 25, 2017. The vessel has sustained structural damage to the bulb, bow and hull. The hull has allegedly punctured forward. While there was no water ingress at present, there are concerns of her sustaining further damage on the rocks. The cause was thought to be a navigational error and propulsion failure. The situation was resolvable with a hull patch and ballast placed aft, however weather conditions have not favoured her removal, but were improving.

Gawkers marvelled at its onboard helicopter, upper deck 50-foot pool and lounges, bars and spas. It quickly became clear that the superyacht, with all its pomp, was the object of unsatisfied curiosity. Russian vodka tycoon Yuri Shefler owns the $330 million ship named Serene. It is 440 feet long and was built at Fincantieri shipyard in Italy and launched in August 2011. More to read at http://www.dailynews.com/ci_20032440?source=most_viewed
