Jet ski collision, 'unbreakable' boat and father's portrait: behind the scenes of Flávio Bolsonaro's boat parade in Angra dos Reis

The presidential candidate for PL, Flávio Bolsonaro, held events in Angra dos Reis on Saturday, marked by several references to his father, former president Jair Bolsonaro, who is under house arrest after conviction for attempted coup d'état. During a boat parade on the Costa Verde, the Rio de Janeiro senator used a boat with the word "unbreakable" printed on its side.

The reference is to a speech made by Jair Bolsonaro on September 7, 2022, in Brasília, when the then president led the chant of "unbreakable" during the celebrations of the bicentennial of Brazil's Independence. On that occasion, Bolsonaro transformed the civic-military parades into campaign events.

Flávio Bolsonaro disembarked from a schooner to use the boat during the event in Angra dos Reis. The article also mentions a jet ski collision, although the details about this incident were not fully specified in the available excerpt.
