Anthes

At 2.5 P.M.

on the 25th October, the Penmon Coastguard reported that a yacht was in difficulties off Penmon and was showing a signal. The Motor Life-boat Frederick Kitchen was launched and found the yacht Anthes at anchor, with two men on board. They did not wish to leave her, and at their request the Life-boat towed her to Bangor which was reached at 4 P.M.

A strong S.W. breeze was blowing with a choppy sea and heavy rain, so the Life-boat was moored for the night and returned to the house next day.— Property Salvage Case..
