The yacht, Princess X95 was enveloped by flames in front of a famous strip club in Miami, Florida No injuries reported
In the morning of Sunday 19 January, the yacht Princess X95, 29 metres long, presumably chartered by hip-hop producer, Metro Boomin, suddenly caught fire while it was docked near one of the most famous strip clubs in Miami, Florida.
According to the New York Post, employees of Booby Trap, the strip club, got to work right away to help rescue the people on board the yacht, including Metro Boom and five crew members. There were no injuries reported and the cause of the fire is unknown.
It took 30 units of the Miami-Dade Fire Rescue to put out the fire. After being called by several witnesses, the fire fighters arrived and tried putting out the fire from land and river. It was particularly difficult due to the size of the vessel and the large amount of fuel on board. It took several hours to put out the flames. The authorities remain even after the fiore was put out in order to contain the fuel spillage and minimize pollution.
PRINCESS X95
The yacht which caught fire was the Princess X95, and was built in the United Kingdom by the Princess shipyard and delivered in 2022. Thanks to its MAN engines, it can reach a maximum speed of 26 knots. It can accommodate up to six people in four comfortable cabins, in addition to the crew. It has a gross tonnage of 140.0 GT and a beam of 6.71m. Naval architecture was curated by Bernard Olesinski, and has a fibreglass hull and superstructure.
