A Sessa sport yacht of about twenty meters with five persons onboard called coast guard assistance after it had its engine room engulfed in smoke during sea-trials in the gulf of Trieste, in front of Porto Piccolo on the morning of 24 September. The Sessa sport yacht was reported as developing some sort of minor hull damage during the accident. The coast guard and fire fighting arrived to the accident scene after some minutes of the call on the Italian 1530 emergency number. At the arrival of the scene all was under control though with the Coast Guard following the yacht up to the entrance to the Porto Piccolo yacht marina as precaution.
The Sessa twenty meter sport yacht in this accident is the C68 model as designed by Christian Grande and produced since 2010. The Sessa C68 was evolved in 2018 as window glazing replaced the circle shaped port holes. A Sport Fly version presented as a project in 2013 never actually materialized.
