A brand new liveaboard boat capsized as it was being delivered from the shipyard to Hurghada, according to a report by eSysman SuperYachts.
The six crew members on board were all rescued as nearby tankers went to assist.
The boat, MV Triton, was built in Alexandria and had travelled through the Suez canal down towards the Red Sea. It sank in the afternoon of its journey near Gabal El Zeit.
