Last night I watched a YouTube video posted by WAVY Boats of a $10M (they said) yacht grounded during a nor-easter in Florida, with TowBoat US trying to get it off the beach.

Video stated that during delivery, both engines seized and the generator stopped.

They didn’t get the yacht off the beach. Video stated another attempt was going to be tried at high tide, 2AM.
