Yup, looks like either one too many or auto pilot error. 
Two years ago, a guy set his auto pilot from Stonnington to Mattituck and fell over board lifting a bumper off the side. Coast Guard used a helicopter and dropped a man on board to stop it just in time to avoid the Mattituck jetty. |

Interesting name on the side of that Catamaran.
The 'Exocet' is a french anti-ship missile.
Looks like they got the names backwards...

looks like the sails were down and stored? if that was the case the power boat would have the right of way the angle they collided

good observation. Unless the catamaran was on anchor Either way I hope they both had insurance. because the one at fault will most likely be dropped after that mess. Lucky no one was killed. |

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.

what an idiot

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
