Scott it looks to my that the drawbridge didn't open right and the boat is smacking it. So who's at fault for damages? The DOT for a faulty bridge? Or the vessel captain for hitting it

The report I heard was that the drawbridge malfunctioned and dropped as
the boat was transiting under the bridge.

That makes sense. There doesn't appear to be any shear damage. The boat
was probably in dead slow ahead mode.

It's also for sale. Original asking price was $21 million. You could
probably pick it up at a steep discount now.

Sometimes posts disappear right after they are read if the news reader
is set to do so. When you respond to a post, that post might have
already disappeared and we are left wondering what the "ell" you are
talking about. Capiche?

This was all over the news here. The yacht was being towed. They are
still arguing about whether the bridge dropped or just failed to open.
It was under tow.
The damage looked pretty superficial to me when they showed it after
the boat was clear. It took out a chunk of that overhang but they
missed all of those electronics on top. It may just be fiberglass
damage.


===

Somehow I missed that, probably because I don't watch much television.
When and where did it occur?

You'd be amazed how fast damages add up when you're talking about
professional boat yard repairs made to "like new" quality. We had a
sailboat hit us last summer after his anchor dragged on a windy day,
putting some relatively minor scratches on our stbd side. It looks
like it's going to settle for something in the mid 4 figure range.

Looks like the bridge was defective. No injuries but significant
damage. The top deck hot tub appears to be OK.
