A dramatic video has appeared that shows the sinking of a yacht in Turkish waters.
In a video that appeared on X, a yacht named ‘Dolce Vento’ sunk off the coast of Zonguldak in northern Turkey’s Eregli district on Tuesday on his first voyage, according to The New York Post.
The report said that the vessel sunk within 15 minutes of being launched into the water.
The report said that the yacht cost nearly $1 million.
In the vide, as the yacht tilted to one side and started sinking, occupants of the ship were seen jumping into the water to save their lives.
The report said that the boat was delivered to its owner from Turkey’s Istanbul.
The occupants, including the yacht’s owner, captain, and two crew members, swam safely to the shore, and the coast guard and port teams later set up a security perimeter around the sinking boat, according to the report.
The sinking was under investigations and technical inspections will be carried out to figure out what led to the sinking, the report said.
