Looked like someone lost their top!! I could've swore I saw a swimsuit top flying from that boat...He blew her top off!!!
That was scary to watch....

That could have been much worse. The scary part to me was how fast it all went bad- hardly any time to react and kinda difficult to reach the sticks if you are on the other side of the cockpit. Lanyards, people, lanyards!

Coulda been a bikini top, but I think it was the rubber gasket from around the windshield.

Been there,done that and lanyard dont work unless you get tossed out,cords too long.Looks like he blew the port window glass out,all i can say is if that gal on the port side didnt get hurt she was darn lucky.
