During the Sail-IN, at Sail Amsterdam a Barge-captain decided to sail
against the flow of tall-ships and spectators (or got confused). Anyway
this isn't allowed to prevent accidents, so the barge was directed to go to
the side of the canal. Apparantly the barge captain was overwhelmed by the
large amount of spectator boats and overlooked a few RIB's.

You can see what happened,I can't believe all the people got away unharmed.
Which makes them very very lucky. If you see the footage you will know why.

(you have to install microsoft Silverlight before you can see the footage
and you have to wait untill the commercial has finished before the footage
starts.)

Anyway well worth the effort to watch.

Apparantly the barge captain was arrested after this incident.
