Yacht and Boat Club president Wilhelm von Schütz was having his usual afternoon swim on Wednesday, 6 December, at Santos Beach when he suddenly saw a large yacht in the shallow water at about 16:15. It was stuck in the sand and listing. "It happened so fast - 10 minutes," he said. "I called the NSRI," Von Schütz told the Mossel Bay Advertiser. Just prior to that the NSRI received a call from the public about the yacht at 16:05, Mossel Bay NSRI station commander André Fraser said.
