An old classic, but still amusing...85' custom-built motor yacht complete with 4 state rooms,
a state-of-the-art galley, GPS System and radar for
navigation, twin supercharged diesel engines, etc.
$7,474,793.00***********************************************************Champagne, chocolate covered strawberries with cream, and
music dockside for the excited 'soon to be owner' and a small
group of his friends $1500.00  Two corporate representatives, crane, and
rigging $2,500.00 an hour minimum... ...complete with a faulty $25 turnbuckle (Note the owner in the stern)
Watching your 7 million dollar dreamboat nose dive into the
harbor, accompanied by two corporate
representatives from the company that built it, just prior to
'inking' the final paperwork and handing over a 7 million dollar bank check...  PRICELESS! So, How is your day going.....

This happened in Galway Docks on Thursday http://www.rte.ie/news/2011/0407/galway.html#video The vessel that came to take the first of the two ferries ran aground the week before and then this happened, the ferries just dont want to leave! There were three people on board during the lift (  ) but I think they only sustained minor injuries.
Engineering; Its all STRESS and not just Force over Area!

Those ferries just dont want to leave the lsland! Justin
