Shortly before 10 P.M. on the 29th June, the Coast- guard at Caister informed the Coxswain that a vessel was aground on the Barber Sands. The crew were assembled and launched the No. 2 Life-boat Nancy Lucy. On reaching the sands she found the ketch Amelia Ann, of Goole, ashore on the south part of the sands. The master of the vessel, finding he was unable to float her without assistance, engaged the Life-boatmen, who laid out anchors and eventually succeeded in getting the vessel afloat, when they took her to Yarmouth Roads..
