On the afternoon of the following day, the No. 2 Life-boat was again launched and rescued 12 men, including the crew of the dandy William, of London, which was wrecked on the North Scroby Sand, and 6 beachmen who had gone on board to try to save the vessel. Considerable difficulty was experienced by the Life-boatmen in effecting this rescue, it being very dark at the time and the sea breaking completely over the wreck. The smack was lying on her starboard side, her lee rigging being in the water and the crew and beachmen were clinging to the wreck; a few minutes later, and they must have been lost..
