A 73ft motor yacht landed up on the rocks at Ports Island as a result of Hurricane Fiona.
The charter boat, named Cortina, is still at the Warwick location facing in a southeasterly direction.
The duty officer at the Maritime Operations Centre said the extent of the boat’s damage was still unclear.
He said it had been a mostly uneventful hurricane on the water.
A small sailboat broke free from its moorings at Coney Island, Hamilton Parish, and ended up about 200 metres away in the direction of Stone Crusher Corner.
A dock outside the new airport terminal also came free.
