Bethenny Frankel, Ramona Singer, Dorinda Medley, Carole Radziwill and Tinsley Mortimer were all set to hop on board a pleasure cruise during a visit to Cartagena, Columbia, but things went wrong very, very quickly.

The girls realized that the luxurious yacht they thought they were going to ride on was actually an old, decrepit vessel. “Once they were ushered on board, the boat couldn’t even move. The anchor got stuck, so the crew had to saw the anchor off before they could sail anywhere,” a source told Page Six.

It got much worse from there. “When they got out to sea, the engine caught fire,” the source continued. "It was a huge blaze and the crew was fighting to put it out. They didn’t have a fire extinguisher nor did they speak English.”

Sources also revealed to Page Six that the sea was so rough that “the seats and other things on board that weren’t nailed down started flying about.” The boat was also taking on water, “and there were only two or three life jackets for everyone on board,” including the film crew.

The traumatizing experience brought out a typical Housewives response from the cast. “They all thought they were going to die and they were hysterical,” a source revealed. “Bethenny, Ramona and Dorinda were soaked and screaming hysterically, Carole and Tinsley were literally throwing up from seasickness. They were far out to sea and they thought they were going down like the Titanic.” The cast and crew were eventually rescued by a passing boat.

The incident was rough enough that Bravo has offered the cast counseling, per reports. A Bravo rep has released a statement about their scary experience, saying “'The Real Housewives of New York City’ cast was recently on a boat in South America and encountered turbulent water. Thankfully, everyone is fine and was able to continue their vacation as planned. The safety of our cast and crew is paramount and, to that end, we are doing a full investigation.”
