that's a crappy bit of bad luck , amazed how the seaward side of the hull has been stoved in by the waves

You'd have thought they could have got a tug with a long hawser and dragged it off?

I know that the anchor seems to have been set in the 2nd vid but not the 1st. Surely the first thing you do on a lee shore if your engines fail is to chuck every anchor you've got overboard with as much rope/chain as possible or am I missing something? Shocking how the wooden hull has been damaged. Would grp have lasted longer?

My thoughts exactly, hope no one was hurt and the insurance coughed up promptly!

Hard to believe that amount of damage can occur in just 5 days from both the pounding of the sea on the port side and graffiti from the locals on the STBD side.

And I'll bet there was some serious looting done too!
