Storm Damage in Palma, Mallorca

Reported on Yacht forums, seems they have had a bit of a storm.

The reports calls it a drug running boat which has been moored their for several months, seems the locals have been helping salvage it. Somehow I don't think their is going to be an insurance claim. Must have been pretty rough to do this inside the harbour though.

Some more photos here, lots of folk lost their pride and joy

A rival dope smuggling crew probably had those items away.
