I hope this does not imply "Captain Gary" was "driving" that tug boat... LOL! Holy Toledo... he must have sunk a couple of those moored boats and repositioned the dock. Can anyone say "Lawyer?"

Wow, that's pretty incredible that no one got to the tug captain to prevent this catastrophe. Must be a couple million dollars in damages at least. Those smaller boats sounded like someone was popping bubble wrap as they were being crushed.
One of the things that scares me most while sailing in the ocean is sudden changes in the weather, which can and do happen. Fortunately, I've not encountered seas such as these.

Donny, I saw this one some time ago - the guy in the sailboat was a complete idiot. Not only did he risk the life of his boat and himself, he also risked the lives of his crew members. He obviously either didn't have a clue what he was doing, or was drunk out of his mind. Or, maybe he was text sailing at the time of the incident.
