A 23 meter Fairline yacht titled Alan under British flag ended aground during a sudden storm in Yalikavak, Bodrum, Turkey at around noon of Wednesday 22 October. The Fairline yacht was anchored in the middle of the bay when a sudden thunder storm with heavy rain and strong winds drifted it into low water and aground. The yacht captain and crew tried to avoid the grounding but to no avail, as the wind had at that stage taken control of the yacht. With the sudden storm stopping some one hour later a rescue operation with a diver and towing boat was already underway. No one was reported injured in the grounding, with the damage to the yacht not being reported.
The Fairline in this grounding is a Squadron 78 Custom, as designed by Bernard Olesinski and produced from 2008 till 2018 in 86 units. The largest Fairline ever made, the Squadron 78 Custom was a replacement and evolution of the Squadron 74.
