Quest

— The fish- ing boats were out on the 7th July, and by noon bad weather had set in. A moderate E.S.E. gale was blowing, with a heavy sea. The coxswain was told by fishermen coming ashore that the local coble Quest was still at sea and in a bad position. The No. 1 pulling and sailing life-boat Forester was launched, found the Quest some distance out and escorted her into safety. The life-boat arrived back at her station at 2.30 P.M.
