Things you’d rather do on Lanai

Wrecked yacht from Inside Bay Area

Wrecked yacht from Inside Bay Area

Get dumped in the ocean when your $8-million America’s Cup sailboat crashes.

However, it did happen in San Francisco Bay. Brrrr.

Well, that’s another reason Lanai island owner Larry Ellison won’t be having his Oracle yacht team practicing off Lanai. No boat.

This isn’t the first time one of Ellison’s boats has crashed. In 2011, it happened off San Diego.

Bloomberg News has video of what $8 million worth of highest-tech sailboat looks like after it stumbles:

Boat captain Jimmy Spithill said, ” There’s no question this is a setback.”

D’ja think?
