Last Friday evening, off the coast of Yalıkavak, in Bodrum, Turkey, there was a collision between the 31.08 metre Numarine yacht "A.Mey" and the 90.1 metre Lürssen superyacht "Ice"

The Numarine 102 yacht "A.Mey" was hit by the "Ice", while videos on social media show how the Lürssen superyacht sailed directly into the course of the "A.Mey". Footage shows damage to the port side of the yacht at the time of the collision. Videos taken during the incident indicate that the retractable platforms on the "Ice" were open, suggesting a possible technical or mechanical failure that may have caused the collision.
