⚓ The Incident at ONE°15 Marina
On June 7, 2026, a 34-meter motor yacht caught fire at the ONE°15 Marina Club in Sentosa Cove. Thanks to the swift response of the SCDF, the fire was contained, preventing damage to neighboring vessels. However, the sheer volume of water used to douse the flames caused the yacht to partially sink, necessitating an immediate environmental containment strategy.
