20?? For Sale, lying in Milford Haven, Pembrokeshire, The Hustler SJ30 was, in its day, a very competant half tonner from the board of a highly respected designer. This local yacht is well known hereabouts and has many honours to her credit. She has been competitively club raced, locally in SW Wales, for over twenty years and has been maintained and upgraded as necessary. She benefits from recent sails and rigging and a comprehensive sail wardrobe. Her owner has successfully cruised her short handed, as with her swept spreaders and setting cruising sails her runners can be dispensed with.

2023 27 September, from Facebook, WSM RNLI Launched on Service, "Crew were paged at 15:21Tuesday 26th September to reports of a ‘Mayday’ from a sailing vessel aground in Weston Bay. The vessel had been aground since the early hours of Monday morning. Both Weston-super-Mare RNLI inshore lifeboats were deployed. On arrival the owner of the vessel had abandoned ship and was able to get back ashore safely. The boat was overwhelmed by the incoming tide and eventually sank. Both boats stood off as they were unable to offer any assistance and the casualty was no longer in danger.
Lifeboat Operations Manager Chris Ware confirmed ‘
The owner had gone back onboard in an attempt to refloat the boat, but unfortunately it was overwhelmed by the incoming tide. It’s distressing and upsetting to see a vessel sink but we are glad the casualty was able to return to the beach safely and no one was injured


from Facebook, "The end of 'Witch Doctor' in South Wales (UK) don't know any maker details. Not sure how she came to be but got caught in breakers and ended on the shore with multiple lifeboats in attendance. Appears the hull has cracked around the stern"
