Narrative:

While conducting the RNAV 28 approach into sav; the PIC spotted what appeared to be a large red/orange/black drone pass off the left side of the aircraft by approximately 200 hundred feet while level at 1800 MSL and 5 to 6 miles from the runway. The first officer did not see the object but did report the possible drone sighting to the tower. No evasive maneuvers were required and the approach and landing continued without incident. After shutdown; one of the passengers reported to the crew that they had also seen a drone pass off the left side of the aircraft. The PIC then made a follow-up phone call to the tower to confirm the drone sighting.
