I read some of the comments. It appears that the "owners" of the boat let this skipper make the passage to Hawaii with two ROOKIES with only "powerboat" experience. When they couldn't keep the generators and enine going, they were "stressed", then the Captain get's broken ribs and banged-up when the boat takes a wave broadside (I don't know who was supposedly at the helm?).
" My brother and I are the owners of the boat and now, the boat is lost at sea or has been claimed by someone else via Salvage laws. There was no serious damage when it left San Diego and apparently since it sailed apprx 2k miles, it was obviously sea worthy. The erratic Longitude/Latitude sail pattern tells a lot. Just a FYI - Power loss was due to crew failing to run the generator and filling the back up generator with diesel instead of gasoline. Our Life Savings DOWN THE DRAIN."

The takeaway for me is "don't" let jus tone experienced sailor 'take your boat away'.
