Lagoon Cat smashed in Thailand

Certainly seen better days
It would appear dheads chartering anchored in the wrong spot at the wrong time,
Quote:
operator error happened, Pra nang is not an anchorage in any conditions let alone S W monsoons ??? To qualify for bareboat charter it is required that you must prove to the charter company that have a pulse !!!
though I would have thought if monsoon season the charter company would have said that spot was a no go zone and would have said so again at afternoon sched , if they even have one.

Re: Lagoon Cat smashed in Thailand

They have a strange way of recycling over there.

On a more positive note. All is still good on that upper fly bridge.
No one even got their feet wet up their. Great design even in its after life.

Re: Lagoon Cat smashed in Thailand

Why exactly is this assumed to be a charter boat?

Re: Lagoon Cat smashed in Thailand

Notice how it is right side up and still stays flat in any conditions.

A testimate to a great design even in its after life.
