The sinking of the 49-metre Aegean superyacht 007 in Greece was reported this morning. The incident, which took place last night and into this morning, occurred off of the Greek island of Kythnos and it appears from imagery that the yacht has now been stabilised by the Coast Guard in a almost fully submerged state.
"In the evening hours of Friday, the Port Authority of Kythnos was informed by the Unified Center for Coordination of Search and Rescue LS-EL.AKT., that the yacht "007" of the flag of Great Britain, has run aground in the sea area of Kolones Bay, Kythnos with five foreign passengers."
"The E/P vessel "DELTA II" T.Saronicou 4760 rushed to the area with a member of the relevant Port Authority on board, where it located the above semi-submerged T/C, at a distance of approximately 15 meters from the western side of the sandy beach of Kolona bay. The passengers, all in good health, transferred to the auxiliary boat and were then transferred to the port of "Mericha" Kythnos."
Major Refits
The superyacht 007 was launched as Amazon A by the Turkish shipyard Aegean Yacht in 2006. She was originally 32-metres in length but has since undergone at least two major extensions to a length of approximately 49-metres, though neither of these extensions were conducted by her build yard Aegean Yacht.
In the photo below the yacht is shown as when she was launched as the 32-metre Amazon A. 
Below she is pictured as 007. During her first major refit she was extended to about 42-metres and during her last major refit she was extended again with a long aft open aft deck and both her hull and superstructure were painted black. We don't have an exact length, but we estimate that she now is around 49-metres.
