It doesn't look like the straps broke. I think they had the forward straps back too far aft and the weight shifted.

Hard to tell, I have rigged many boats on a crane and frame sling setup and that is what we always fear.

Hard to tell what happened, it almost looks like the forward sling got hung up on something that was out of view.

Notice how that forward sling starts to slant and then the weight shifts and "IT" hits the fan!!!!

Wow!

On a further look the frame is actually two separate frames, one for front and other for back.

The one I used was a square frame which would not allow this to happen. You can still lose the boat off any set-up but this one IMHO is an accident waiting to happen.

That is crazy!!! Sounds like spanish, he says I can't believe it! I can't believe it! Looks like one of the ships that bring boats to central America. Def. not in CR on the Pacific side. We have clean water where they unload. That stuff is choc brown. Maybe along the eastern side of Central amer. or Panama, Nic. on the Pacific.
