Sinking Feeling

So you have this new $27 million motor yacht. It's fully loaded with elevators, a couple of hot tubs and even a submarine. Now, what's the worse thing that could happen?

It might sink on its maiden voyage like the Titanic? It might run aground?

No, worse than that. It sinks into the road while on a trailer on its way to dry dock!

Check out Sinking feeling: Road gives way under $27 million yacht for the full story and video.
