A 22 meter Astondoa motor yacht finished beached on the morning of eighteen August, in Ses Illetas, Formertera. The cause of the beaching are unknown but a storm hit the island between the night of seventeen and eighteen August morning, and with this the anchor being down I suspect the yacht dragged. Located on the North of the Formentera, Ses Illetas is rather unique open beach with sand and view uninterrupted to East and West.
The yacht in this accident is an Astondoa 72 GLX designed by Nuvolari Lenard and produced from 1998 to 2007. Astondoa sold over forty first generation 72 GLX before the model was replaced by the 76 in 2008. This is the third Astondoa 72 GLX reported in an accident this Summer, with a sister-ship burning down in Costa Rica in early July, and another having control troubles in Girona and hitting boats and the jetty earlier in August.
