Maiora Super Yacht Destroyed by Fire in Isla Mujeres

A 27 meter Maiora titled m/y Dominic with eight persons had an onboard fire in Isla Mujeres, to the East of Cancun just South to the Gulf of Mexico which started at about 20:00 time of 26 July.  The fire was reported to start at the center lower deck of the yacht, with the two crew and six guests trying to control the fire.  The yacht was first assisted by a passing Ultramar ferry who tried to help to extinguish the fire, to no success before the Isla Mujeres emergency services made up of firemen and Civil Protection arrived at the burning vessel by a Navy boat.  Ultimately Dominic burned down and sank and according to Coordinación Estatal de Protección Civil, there were no injures or fuel spill reported, with the yacht shown sunk and half burned on the morning of 27 July.   
M/y Dominic the Maiora yacht in this fire is a 27 model from 2009.  A design of Roberto del Re and produced from 2004 to 2012, the Maiora 27 was a replacement and evolution of the 26S, and was produced in fifteen units.
