So ?

Let's hear the real story...Looks like a sailors' boat, and the temporary covering looks seamanlike for a quick job; there must be more to this.

American Couple from Seattle

The guys name is Jodd Teanyus - he was down for a coffee, and when he came back up it was to late to avoid collission with the 240 meter tanker (no, they were not under spinnaker )
Luckily they're both well (and so is their cat).
There'll be an investigation, so don't blame anyone Although he is being quoted for admitting being down checking the charts and having a coffee..
