Do you see any corollaries here?

A Hawaii woman says the man who stole her family’s 47-foot charter sailboat not only devastated their memories but he also took their livelihood when he ran aground.

The man allegedly broke into the boat, brought his guitar and luggage aboard, and asked a fisherman for help leaving the slip before he grounded a few miles north of the marina. Co-owner Laura Mascari told the Honolulu Star Advocate that authorities quickly realized the man who was rescued from their sailboat had no sailing experience, knew nothing about the boat and likely stole it. He was arrested at the scene.

Fact: When you let someone take over your business and run it aground, you're out of business.
