    so is it a superyacht or a sailboat? or did they just put sails on a superyacht?

    I ask because a superyacht I assume has support staff/victims/etc on board to feel bad for, if it was just this guy and his ilk its crab-party

          That depends on the ballast, but the greatest danger is that all the winches on those big boats are electric, meaning that if something breaks the sail(s) get(s) stuck and the best case is you get rescued and lose the ship. A booj problem to have indeed

          Or they attempted a backflip and it went wrong
