OMG – The Prince Capsized!!!

The Prince and his crew in the drink.
OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD Can you believe it, the Prince of Denmark capsized his boat on Sydney Harbour! OMG this is so full on I can’t believe it!!! OMG he capsized TWICE!!!!!
Seriously. Freakin seriously!!!
Yes, you read correctly. The Crown Prince of Denmark, Prince Frederik, and his crew (does anyone even know his name..?) capsized during the “sailing race” at the World Masters Games on Sydney Harbour today.
Capsizing in a Tasar is pretty serious stuff, and newsworthy enough to appear on the 7pm Project, Ten’s First at Five News, Channel 9 News and across thoousands of news websites and blogs across the globe. And now it’s on LSD…
Do a Google search for “prince frederik capsizes” – it’s pretty funny how many news sites have reported this incident.
Grant Wharrington was a guest on the 7pm Project tonight being quizzed about the controversy surrounding the Ben Lexcen winged keel and what some guy overseas is rattling on about – and at the end of the interview they went to footage of the Prince receiving assistance from the patrol boat crews whilst the other Tasar sailors were struggling to sort themselves out!
Regardless, it’s great to see that the Prince is bringing sailing into the mainstream media.
If he wasn’t racing, do you think sailing would receive this much attention???
