Taken by surprise by the storm or taken by surprise by the squall that knocked them down?
I think I'll now sit back and wait for the official report.

I agree. We all have our own thoughts. I tend to disagree with your views. I’m not going to air mine other than saying what I’ve posted earlier.
The same principles apply to small and large sailboats regarding safety and stability.

We should not apportion blame to anyone now and wait for the findings of any investigations.

From the latest video I note the reference to the keel bulb that could have been in the region of 200 tonnes. Sounds huge but proportionally the same size as my boats and that of many others. It’s there for a reason I’m sure.

I am shore this will be a wake up call to captains and crews of super yachts to take their responsibilities seriously.

With some particularly wild accusations flying around I regret that the thread is locked pending review in the morning.
