The Sailing Trawler Faithful

On 12th November, in response to signals of distress which were observed in the bay soon after 1 A.M., the Life-boat Mary Isabella put to sea, and, after a severe buffeting, found the sailing trawler Faithful, of Ramsey, with her tiller broken off short at the rudder head.

The ketch was got to an anchorage, but as the crew did not deem it wise to re- main on board in the prevailing E.S.E.

gale, they were taken into the Life-boat, which landed them at 3.30 A.M..
