What Happened
- On the morning of Aug 10, 2026, a yacht was reversing into its berth at the marina when it made contact with a pontoon.
- A video of the incident was shared on TikTok (@regineonthecove) at about 10:45am that day. It shows a three-storey yacht reversing, with at least seven people (in white tops & dark shorts) moving hurriedly on the boat/pontoon. One person dragged a protective fender to place between the yacht’s stern and the pontoon — the yacht struck the fender, which then pressed hard against the pontoon, creating ripples. Smoke was seen rising afterward, and shouting from crew/staff was heard.
- Impact: The collision caused temporary disruption to water, power, and fuel supplies in the immediate vicinity of the marina club. Services were restored shortly after.
- Casualties & Operations: No injuries were reported. The incident was described as isolated; marina operations continued as normal.
- Status of Damage: The marina management stated they are assessing minor damage to the affected marina infrastructure and had no further comment at that stage.
- Additional note: The Straits Times had contacted Sentosa Development Corporation for further information at time of publishing.
