The yacht is currently positioned in the surf zone, just metres from a rocky outcrop, where it has been exposed to strong winds and breaking waves since Wednesday.Local reports indicate that the first salvage attempt on Thursday was abandoned due to challenging sea conditions. With the yacht remaining in shallow water, authorities and salvage specialists are continuing to monitor the situation closely, warning that prolonged exposure to the surf increases the risk of structural damage.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/383704/image/large-3a549a5797b22cbb0c72055c1df76d5a.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/383704">According to experts involved in the operation, the yacht’s displacement of approximately 90 tonnes and a draft exceeding three metres are significantly complicating recovery efforts. High waves and strong surf have so far prevented the safe deployment of tugboats, with any further salvage attempt dependent on an improvement in weather conditions.The circumstances leading to the grounding remain unclear, with questions raised as to why the charter yacht was operating so close to shore amid deteriorating weather, although no official statement has yet been issued.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/383706/image/large-36bc5783f3b19d62d27ebd23f358b956.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/383706">Launched in 1985 from Germany, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/8917" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Acoa28.0m (91'10&quot;)Dubbel & Jesse Yachtbau GmbH & Co.

Constructed with an aluminium hull and superstructure, she features a beam of 8.89-metres and a draft of 2.33-metres. Her distinctive low-profile silhouette is characterised by clean lines, expansive glazing and an uncluttered look.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397167/image/large-b141990b85e5a1cc3403090a05a024dd.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397167"> <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397169/image/large-4e688af92b30a4582f0b0fbb18366c98.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397169">According to the shipyard, the yacht is designed around openness, light and a direct relationship with the marine environment. This philosophy is most evident within her main saloon, where floor-to-ceiling windows and an open-plan arrangement place the sea at the centre of the onboard experience.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397170/image/large-e99cd323156182c88f6b2afeba609cb3.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397170"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397172/image/large-6e383fb85357aabdfd4ca3322b4ee657.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397172">Moreover, her interiors embrace a calm and contemporary approach, featuring a neutral palette intended to complement, rather than compete with, the surrounding scenery.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397171/image/large-62a5e66c76c69c3b4b42d76f20dd4f28.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397171">Moving outside, the cockpit’s raised seating descends towards the aft swim platform, creating a seamless connection to the water. This sense of space is further enhanced by drop-down side wings that broaden the deck. Meanwhile, a generous foredeck lounge forward with additional seating offers the perfect setting for relaxation, with a discreet sunpad crowning the superstructure above.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397168/image/large-af3b54bffc69a8db8cf37d5eb373d44d.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397168" style="box-sizing: inherit; border: 0px; font-family: &quot;Open Sans&quot;, sans-serif; position: relative; max-width: 100%; margin: 1rem 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13.6px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">"The objective was not to maximize gross tonnage, but to maximize the owner's experience of the sea," commented <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/58" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Luca Dini Design & Architecture (Company)">Luca Dini</a>.
