Default Boat sank south of Nassau

Just heard that a new Sunseeker w/triple yanmars sank south of Nassau. It happened a couple or few nights ago. The capt. was traveling at night and hit a reef. Tore off the rudders which left a big hole in the azz end. It sank in shallow water so the top is still above the water line.

Has anyone heard about this? If so, is everyone ok?

That's an expensive "ouch" - and just wait till the manatee huggers get their paws on him for tearing up the coral!
