A million-dollar luxury yacht named Dolce Vento sank shortly after it was launched off Turkey’s northern coast on Tuesday. Amateur footage of the launch and capsizing shows the crew, captain and owner of the vessel jumping ship as the boat slowly entered the water. All people on board were rescued by the Coast Guard, and no major injuries were reported.

The 85-foot boat, which had just been delivered to its owner, cost roughly $940,000.

Oh well, another one for the fishes.
