A thirteen meter Fairline Squadron with Slovenian flag and eight persons onboard, was destroyed by fire and then sank near Lido Estensi and Porto Garibaldi just after 10:00 morning time of Sunday fourteen July. The eight persons onboard the Fairline flybridge jumped in the water, as soon as they saw the boat burning, and were assisted first by a nearby sailing boat, and then the Guardia Costiera. Following this the Vigili dell Fuoco of Ferrara and Guardia Costiera continued to fight the fire, an operation which was completed after three hours, with the fire turned off at 13:30 at about five hundred meters away from the coast. The cause of the fire is under investigation, with the flybridge boat being filled with fuel some minutes before catching fire at Portogaribaldi. A recovery is planned for Monday, with the boat being currently boom protected and under observation for any environmental damage it might cause.
The Fairline in this fire is a Squadron 43 as designed by Bernard Olesinski and produced from 1994 to 1997. The 43 was the entry level Squadron range model, Fairline's flagship flybridge range which in that period arrived up to 62 foot. The Squadron 43 was a replacement to the 43 and was replaced by the Phantom 46.
