FLEETWOOD.—Signals of distress were shown on the night of the 6th April by the steam trawler Diana, of Grimsby, which had stranded on Barnard's Wharf in a strong W.S.W. breeze, a heavy sea, and thick weather. The Life-boat Maude Pickup was launched at 11.45, and on reaching the vessel found her in a sinking condition. She had lost her propeller, rudder and stern post, and several feet of her keel had been torn away by continually striking on the bank. The tide had floated her and was drifting her off the bank into deep water. The master acting on the advice of the coxswain of the Life-boat let go the anchor as the vessel was unmanageable, and with the aid of the donkey engines succeeded in keeping the water under until, with the aid of a tug which was summoned by the Life-boat, the vessel was taken into the harbour..
