Nice boat destroyed off Fingal Head, Cook island
A big expensive boat like that and they didn't have top notch nav equipment? Fell asleep? What a waste

There isn't actually many articles on it, there's something on the westpac helicopter page on Facebook, it was 65foot apparently

Apparently they were travelling from Sydney to Gold Coast, on the news tonight they reckon the boat will be salvaged next week, I doubt there will be much left by then
