Vesuvio-Jet Vessel Reviews and Specifications

On May 16, 2026, passengers aboard the fast ferry 'Vesuvio Jet' experienced a harrowing moment when four windows were shattered and six sustained damage during a turbulent journey from Naples to Capri. As the vessel, identified by IMO number [insert IMO number], navigated roughly five nautical miles off Naples, it encountered exceptionally rough seas that led to a violent wave crashing against the ship, ultimately resulting in the damaged windows. Fortunately, all 122 passengers on board were unharmed and did not require any medical assistance. Following the incident, the 'Vesuvio Jet' was safely escorted back to Naples for thorough technical inspections. The shipping company has announced that alternative arrangements are being made to ensure that passengers can continue their journey to Capri. As of May 18, the vessel remains docked in Naples, with updates on repairs and future sailings forthcoming.
