Default Top Gun and Concept 44 collide at BVI Poker Run

http://bvinews.com/bvi/breaking-news...-at-poker-run/

I was told by a crew member that the TG had a steering malfunction. I don't think injuries are life threatening. Two beautiful boats really banged up though. TG was from Puerto Rico and Concept from St Martin.

Hope all involved have a speedy recovery.

Any more details on what broke in the steering system? Did it have full hydraulic to the helm?

no, that shot is from 2012.

If he was there, I'm guessing there would be a 100% chance you would know it.

Could happen anytime, anywhere, to anyone. Best wishes to all involved and I hope all the injuries heal fast!
