Apparently team Abu dhabis brand new 42 mti rolled at the race sometime this weekend, does anyone have any more information about the crash? Everyone involved is reportedly ok, there's no videos of the crash, just a picture hdb posted on Facebook.

Just read the following from ---> http://raceboatinternational.com/index.php?id=2113

Abu Dhabi's Sheikh Sultan Bin Khalifa arrived in Ibiza full of confidence that his £1 million investment in a brand new MTI hull would at least challenge arch rivals, Dubai's Victory team for the silverware.

Instead he watched their cat barrel-roll on the first lap and the Sheikh left Ibiza totally disillusioned.

It was expected MTI builder/designer Randy Schism would throttle the boat in its first races but instead it was left to Al Mansoori and Al Tayer to tame the new catamaran.

Sure it is. You just have to believe you can fly.

Apparently money by itself isn't enough, it takes some talent as well. Should be a lesson learned.

Go back a few years and ask Don Johnson...
