Was out in a local habour yesterday and captured a bit of a boating fail.

My first try at posting a video.


The sandbar was likely much clearer from the air than sea level. He should have stayed tight to the green buoy on the left.

Ouch! The guy was probably not looking where he was going, more at a drone in the sky! lol
 
That's gonna leave a mark LOL :)

Good catch :)
 
Considering he hit the beach, I would think that the dry land directly in front of him would have been easily visible, even from water level. As a long time boater, this wasn't a channel marker issue/misunderstanding, this was either inattention or an intentional beaching (although I can't imagine why). Nicely done video, though. At least YOU were paying attention! :)
