Sighting Description: Sette persone, tra cui l’ing. Alessandro Alexandri e le sue due figlie, mentre erano a bordo di uno yacth, videro all’orizzonte una grossa palla di luce verde, a pelo d’acqua. Avvicinatisi, notarono che era un oggetto ovoidale, con tre luci (verde, giallo e rosa), completamente silenzioso. L’oggetto in seguito si alzò, spostandosi a brevi scatti laterali, per poi fermarsi nel cielo ed infine scomparve alla vista alle ore 06:55.
