Default Boat sinking off FL

As I write there's a 64 (or 65) foot boat sinking off Haulover Beach.
The CG has rescued all 5 POB's. The helicopter shot shows the bow
sticking up - it looks like a sailboat with twin anchors, but its hard
to say what it is. The seas are relatively calm, and apparently its
only taken an hour, so we'll probably hear some story of hitting debris.

Look closer. Those twin anchors are on twin hulls. Yet another catamaran
sinking. It doesn't surprise me.
