Awesome - got to be better than a video of her running aground.

Makes me wonder though what is the point in a large luxury sailing yacht like that? it would be quite strange sitting in the saloon that looks like a luxury hotel - on it's side!!!

I'm surprised at you, you should know better, it's the foot line! The leech was fine!

It was probably too far for the bowmonkey to walk to pull on it
