Rod Stewart left red-faced after almost sinking private yacht on booze-filled trip
Sir Rod Stewart almost sank his boat by putting too much beer in it.The rocker, 77, was in his vessel – a Riva 2000 – which was loaded up with booze for a trip off the coast of California.He was with band pals Kevin Savigar and Jim Cregan when the craft started taking on water.Guitarist Jim said: “We had a near nautical disaster.“‘I’ll call the skipper,’ says Rod, ‘and we’ll grab a few beers and get going.’ Kevin Savigar, Rod and I join Nigel, the skipper, and a 24 flat-pack of beer and away we go.“’The boat doesn’t seem to be going too well, Nigel,’ says Rod. ‘Yes, it’s a little sluggish,’ comes the reply.
