Steve Jobs' yacht smashes the competition

A small collision of billionaires between the beautiful boat of the late Steve Jobs, founder of Apple, and that of an important Mexican businessman off the coast of Naples.

Now in the hands of Powell Jobs, Steve Jobs' widow, the late Apple founder's luxury yacht was involved in an accident off the coast of Naples, Italy, in early August.

More specifically, a navigational issue caused the Venus - the name of the boat - to collide with the Lady Moura, the vessel of Ricardo Salinas Pliego, a Mexican media and commerce giant. In an Instagram video, Salinas laments the lack of responsiveness of the Venus' crew, given the nonchalant speed of the boats at the time.

Is there a captain on the superyacht?££££

"I would like to know what the captain and crew were doing to not see a yacht of this size," Salinas commented. "You can see that the world is not short of idiots." The damage was fortunately limited, except for a big scratch on the Mexican boat. Nothing that should scare Powell Jobs' assurances (note that neither she nor Salinas were on board at the time).
