The very strong winds that blew on Thursday night in Paphos and which also caused intense rough seas in the port of Kato Paphos, resulted in damage to a number of docked boats and fishing boats.
Information from "F" states that a small number of boats were damaged due to their impact on the pier where they were moored or with adjacent boats due to the intense waves caused by the intense phenomena.
In one case, a yacht had to be transported using a crane to the land area, since the damage it has suffered made the possibility of sinking visible.
In a small number of other boats and yachts, the damage was less and with the intervention of the owners, the worst was avoided, without the need to tow them out of the water.
The very intense phenomena with the strong winds and the intense rough seas lasted until the early morning hours in Paphos and were accompanied by rain.
