    Well. It looks like the boat came to a stop against the house, it didn’t “crash into the home”. Fake news...

    Like most claims we hear of "Fake News" it turns out that the story is accurate (unless he carries his anchor in a very strange position).

    The windows aren’t even broken, are they?

    I mean it doesn’t mean the operator wasn’t a moron but the sensationalism of “boat CRASHES into home” is bit tabloidal...

    Not sure how it is in Florida, but up here they don't usually build houses in the water and our boats generally don't cruise on land. So one of the two are in the wrong place.
