43 or 44 foot steel yacht sank off Huskisson [Jervis Bay] yesterday. After 18 hours of drama the yacht was being towed back into Huskisson by the rescue association. The yacht was being sailed solo and lost her mast and had all the usual problems 5 miles SE of St Georges head. Details are very sketchy at this stage and I suspect wont get much better.
We have been experiencing howling NE's all week.
