Ok.. what in the flying, or sailing, fuck is going on here. I’m not even sure I believe this is real. Did you see the catastrophic sailing accident this past Saturday?

The Mexican Navy embarked on a sailing journey from Acapulco on April 4th, and just made it to New York this past weekend, docking in Manhattan. So 45-ish days of sailing in this modern day on the Mayflower, to “exalt the seafaring spirit, strengthen naval education, and deliver a message of peace and goodwill from the Mexican people to the seas and ports of the world”.

The seemingly centuries old ship full of pirates was due to sail to Iceland, but one of the giant masts ended up whopping the Brooklyn Bridge on it’s departure resulting in two deaths and several injuries. The boat had some malfunctions in it’s equipment and could no longer control it’s rudder.

Is this straight out of a Movie? Look at this damn boat. Does it sling cannonballs? What kind of Navy is this. I don’t even know what else to say.
