Nobody on board either vessels was injured in the incident.
A party boat hosting a high school senior prom rear-ended a yacht while docking on the Hudson River in Hoboken, New Jersey on Thursday.
Thankfully, none of the 95 high schoolers on board the Cornucopia Destiny were injured in the incident, but both vessels sustained some damage.
Video of the incident was posted online and went viral on Friday.
An administrator for Weehakwen High School, where the students were from, said the students, administrators and staff disembarked the vessel at 9:50 p.m.
The school said it was working to secure a location for another prom for the students before graduation.
