43-foot yacht caused traffic jam after getting stuck in snow bank

A 43-foot-long yacht named Maggie Mae blocked traffic in downtown Boston on Wednesday afternoon.



The boat was being towed by an 18-wheeler that stopped after getting stuck in a 6-foot snow bank. The boat was eventually freed after crews dug up snow and towed the truck out.

Phil Bennett, vice president of sales for the boat's manufacturer, Hinckley Yachts, said that the boat in question is a 43-foot ‘Talaria’ that had just been completed.



“She was headed to the New England Boat Show,” Bennett explained. “She’ll be on display there.”
