The Motor Fishing Coble Maggie

— Several motor fishing boats and cobles put out early on the 2nd November, but were caught in a strong N.N.W. gale, with a very heavy sea. All except the motor fishing coble Our Maggie returned to harbour, and the motor life-boat Herbert Joy II was launched to look for her. She eventually found her about eight miles north-east of Scarborough, with a trawler standing by. The life- boat escorted her safely back to harbour, and returned to her station at 2 P.M.—Rewards, £20 3s..
