Former owner of pleasure boat at the centre of beach tragedy says swimmers were in a 'dangerous' area

The ex-owner of a boat which was impounded after the death of two children in the sea has said the area is "dangerous".

Emergency services rushed to the scene, where eight other people were treated on the beach after being pulled from the sea by lifeguards.
