£10M quid??? Blimey, bit excessive.

Love the way one of the workmen walks over to it and just shrugs as if to say "Dunno how that happened"

The contractor that left the project last week will get the blame

Looks like a pretty ropey section of marina to launch a boat that expensive.

Due to the clearly visible erosion of the banks it was probably shallower at the bottom of the slipway than they allowed for.

If so, then possibly as a result the guy they mentioned being in the bilge was pumping out some water to reduce its draft, and they overdid it. I mean the thing looks pretty top-heavy anyway.

Go to 1:14 on this one:

Also 2:31 made me laugh.

And check out the cross-channel ferries at 3:31 where the crew and most of the fittings are having a "swell" time
