Stuck on the rocks between El Rocon beach club and Playa Enquentro.

Hope it's insured, looks very expensive!

Yacht goes aground

That ain't good, but I've seen worse. It would be good if they could get it off the rocks/bottom and away from the rollers without a major hull penetration and limp to Luperon for repairs. Anybody catch the name of the yacht? Where's Sea Tow when you need them?

If anyone has seen the Nicholas Cage film "Lord of War" you will recall the part where he lands a cargo plane on a road in North Africa.

In less than 24 hours the plane is completely disassembled and everything is stolen by the locals, nothing is left.

I can see the same thing happening here, but with a nautical theme!

By the way, if you haven't seen "Lord of War", I highly recommend it.
