Annie Scot, of Arbroath

On the 30th November, the barque Annie Scott, of Arbroath, was stranded during a strong wind and hazy weather on the Cross Sand, off the Norfolk coast. The same life-boat went off and succeeded in saving the vessel's crew of 9 men. They had taken to the ship's boat, and were driving rapidly away to the northward, when they were overtaken by the life-boat. The vessel was subsequently towed by a steam-tug into Yarmouth Roads..
