On the morning of the 23rd December, a message was received from the harbour- master at Wexford that a vessel was ashore on Wexford bar. A strong S.W. gale was blowing, with a very heavy sea and rain. The Motor Life- boat K.E.C.F. left her moorings at 10.10 A.M., and found the Dutch motor vessel Oceaan, of Groningen. She stood by until the Oceaan refloated, and then returned to her Station, arriving there at 12.35 P.M.—Permanent Crew, Re- wards, £1 3s. 6d..
