VC legend Tom Perkins might have to go back to work soon...selling his yacht to pay the bills might be off the table now.

During a race to raise money for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society last weekend, a competing sailor in a more modest vessel ran straight into the side of the great Maltese near Treasure Island, leaving a gash and awestruck crew members behind as it sailed off into the distance:

Yes. Some unfortunate sailor lost control of his 40-foot sloop and ran headfirst into a 289-foot, $160 million super yacht that was once the subject of its very own 60 Minutes segment.

Oh the horror...more pics here.

Welcome home Tom...did he get rammed by someone looking to settle score?
