Dramatic video shows a brand new luxury yacht sinking just minutes after it was launched off the coast of Turkey, forcing its crew to leap overboard.
According to reports, the new $1 million vessel, an 85-foot cruiser named Dolce Vento, was launched Tuesday in the Ereğli district of Zonguldak, a port city on Turkey’s Black Sea.
The amateur video shows the boat being pushed into the ocean down a track on the beach and then swaying within 15 minutes of setting off.
As bystanders watched, the luxury yacht lurched to one side, tilting dangerously before taking on water.
