The crew of the superyacht S/Y YAZZ sprang into action to assist in a rescue operation approximately 10 nautical miles off Piraeus.

Upon noticing a nearby vessel on fire, the crew responded immediately to the emergency; tenders went immediately to the area to rescue the crew.

Four crew members were successfully evacuated and taken on board S/Y YAZZ.

The Hellenic Coast Guard later arrived at the scene and safely transferred the rescued personnel. Despite the swift rescue efforts, the distressed vessel completely burned down.

Following the incident, the yacht's Charter Manager praised the crew's swift, professional, and courageous teamwork, stating that their actions perfectly reflected the true values of the maritime industry.
