BREAKING: Yacht supposedly explodes of NJ, maybe a hoax

HAHAHAHA..I'm from NJ...It was one of those guido rich kid's dad's party boats...LOLOLOLOL

Get this!!.. They were barbequing steaks and the propane tank blew up because they were smoking weed next to the grill while the gas was one but the flame was out...LOLOLOL

Without knowing anything about the people on the yacht or the explosion - this has drug cartel vengeance written all over it...

That wouldn't be too shocking.

Seems plausible for sure.

If I was trying to be "stealth" I wouldn't have posted it.
...and "local" is relative in that area.
You act like you discovered something special.

Derp!

No need to be rude, I'm a local also. You must be originally for North NJ, or New York, judging from your reaction. Derp!

More interesting is this.....

"There were at least 21 people on the boat"

Sounds like one of the local party boats went BOOM.....not a private Yacht.

I have to get a van and paint News 7 on the side.

You can get in anywhere.

Hope it had an emergency locator beacon. Any word on a Mayday?

Seems far fetched...NJ...lol

You're a sharp one.

Funny...as a mechanic and boat owner I was gonna say it's got an inboard motor with a fuel/vapor leak written all over it.

This is not doom, it's FAIL.

The world wouldn't change at all if this happened to every yacht in the ocean tomorrow.

Any yacht that size has a diesel engine, not gasoline.

Diesels don't just go kaboom without 'help'.

why is the ABC chopper focused on what seems to be it's own trcuk?

Exactly.....therefore GAS ENGINE....and smaller boat.
They don't put gas engines in anything over 35ft or so.
(fishing vessel wise)

A Coast Guard spokesman told the BBC that the GPS on the yacht has been disabled, probably from the explosion, making it more difficult to locate the survivors.

The cause of the explosion is not yet known.

Anyone else thinking of the last scene in "Swordfish"?

Gotta be a drone attack. Or it was hit by one crashing.

lol I thought the exact same thing!

Drone computer program malfunction caused it to fire on the yacht... the Pentagon had to ditch the drone afterwards.

Nearly two hours after a distress call saying 21 people had safely abandoned ship but nine had serious burns neither a flotilla of rescue boats nor a flight of helicopters could find any evidence of the vessel "Blind Date" or an wreckage from an explosion.
