The bow wave seems to have pushed them away, and they might possibly
have escaped with no damage if the spinnaker hadn't hung up on the

I was surprised to see so many yachts sailing near that ship and also
the ship making such way. I mean it seemed to be really zooming along.
Looked like an overly congested area ripe for such an incident.

It obviously was congested but that video was shot with a very long
telephoto lens which tends to compress distances quite a lot.
