I was wondering the same. Maybe tied up at high tide and tipped at low?

Are you writing about the guy that provided millions of dollars of
income for thousands of people?

The real assholes are the people that did this.

Did you click on the video?
It was the maiden voyage.
I don't know what the problem was but I saw a couple of reasonable
explanations.
The one I like is, if you look before the boat is launched, note the
low entrance into the stern of the boat, as it enters the water the
angle is high and water enters the boat. Before they get the boat in far
enough to change the angle a lot of water has entered, if you look close
you can see gurgling on the left side stern. (water in air out)
The second, not enough ballast. (not my belief)

I didn't notice the tracks on the left. Now I'm thinking the carrier may have been
blocked (or something) and not let the boat ride all the way into the water.
