A Motor Fishing Boat Lively

About 1 P.M. on 6th April the Coxswain saw that the small motor fishing boat Lively, of Stomoway, was in difficulties outside the harbour. A moderate W.N.W. gale was blowing, with a rough sea and sleet showers. The Motor Life- boat William and Harriot was launched, and found the boat drifting helplessly, with her engine disabled and her sail carried away, and in danger of being swamped at any moment. Her crew of two were exhausted. The Life-boat towed her into safety.—Rewards, £2 10s..
