Who is a “credit card captain”? In English, this locution stands for a shipowner with a well-fed wallet who, however, knows practically nothing about seamanship. Incidents like the one we are about to show you happen frequently in tourist resorts, but not with a magnitude of damage comparable to what this self-styled skipper did in the British Virgin Islands. A large sailboat in the wrong hands can prove to be a weapon with devastating effects. “Captain Crash,” in this case, takes out six boats in 45 minutes. What a disaster!
