This photo has two stories attached:
1) it features the Asgard II which has sunk recently.
2) the motoryacht (which doens't look particularly seaworthy to me) had to
be towed in by the rescue services. Due to it's unusual design, it had so
muchg drag that the lifeboat had some trouble getting her back in against
the tide (although she has two very large waterjets..)
