Bahamas: The moment a €12 million yacht “crashes” into a cruise ship

A “wreck” involving a yacht worth 12 million euros crashing into a cruise ship was spotted off the port of Nassau in the Bahamas.

Video recorded by a passenger on the cruise ship shows the yacht Aurora on a collision course with the Allure of the Seas, which was tied up in port.

“He’s getting ready to hit us. He’s going to hit us. No man, he’s going to hit us,” the eyewitness to the collision can be heard saying.

Seconds later the 37-metre-long yacht crashes hard into the cruise ship while continuing on its course, “scraping” the side of the ship.

The collision, however, caused minor damage to the Allure of the Seas which departed the Bahamas 40 minutes late.

According to the Daily Mail, the yacht Aurora is part of the Nordhavn 120 series, its value is estimated at €12 million and can accommodate up to 10 people as it has five bedrooms, including a suite.
