Kathleen Claire

During a moderate N.W. gale with a ground swell on 27th November, a telephone message was received from the owner of the fishing boat Kathleen Clare that his boat was in distress in the North Bay. The Motor Life-boat K.E.C.F. was launched at 9.50 P.M.

Mr. W. J. B. Moncas, the Honorary Secretary, went with her. She found the fishing boat with her engine broken down, took her in tow and brought her and her crew of three men to Wexford Quay. The Life-boat returned to her Station at 1.50 A.M. The Owner sent a letter of thanks.—Permanent Crew ; Rewards, 13s..
