This catamaran docked in the Careenage, was swept inside the inner basin by the fury of the winds of Tropical Storm Tomas.
The boat was lashing against the rocks there which caused major damage.
Tomas, now upgraded to a category 1 hurricane, is now passing off the coast St Lucia and St Vincent.
Last night and well into this morning, Tomas was causing much damage and destruction across Barbados, destroying homes, falling trees and utility poles, making some roads impassable.
As a result, the Transport Booard suspended all of its services and Bridgetown was virtually reduced to a ghost City compared to what is usually a bustling shopping day.
