From the track it appears they just ran aground on a rock

The tracker doesn't lie: The Hunter 37 Aegean, which was feared to have been run over by a large commercial vessel during the Newport to Ensenada race, actually ran aground on the North Coronado Island, killing four crew members. A nasty bit of rock, and with the decent sized swell running during the race, it is not hard to imagine the sort of carnage rendered, at least to the boat. We still aren't sure how the hell they ended up there though... Click here to expand on the track.

They ran into a rock and it did that much damage?
