    It's much more likely that the hull has hit the sea bottom. This usually happens when the tide isn't as high as anticipated.

    Appears to be real, says steel hull and shallow draft. I’m guessing there has been some shouting in the shipyard, but she looks awful high for a shallow draft.

    Pretty obviously nothing like the Northern Marine incident, where the boat capsized while launching due to lack of stability in the event. Dolce Vento floated upright on launching, then slowly took on a heel (due to water ingress) and eventually rolled and sank.

    Yeah, she listed. That poor designer who decided against putting the seacock in a floodbox thinking tbe bilge pump would handle it, never expected the raw water hose to come off.
