Luxury yachts gutted by fire

In the early morning of Jan 4, 2016, at 2 a.m. a fire in Marmaris gutted the "Barbie" and "The One". The fire broke out on "The One" before spreading to Barbie and took fire fighters four hours to extinguish. As they battled the flames, firefighters also had to pump water off the stricken superyachts to prevent them from sinking. Other yachts moored at the marine left the harbour to escape the fire.The two multimillion-pound superyachts have been gutted to charred wrecks. The cause remained under investigation. The vessels appeared to be a write-off, as the combination of smoke, heat and water damage meant that little would be left of the interior, engines and equipment,. Insurance underwriters will appoint a surveyor and loss adjuster immediately, but they will also be examining the policy fine print.
