The crew of the motor life-boat Herbert Joy II were assembled at 9 A.M. on the 27th February, as several fishing boats were at sea, and conditions were getting bad. At noon a S.E. gale was blowing, with a very heavy sea. One of the boats was seen approaching and the life-boat was launched at 12.10 P.M.

She met the boat, the Mary Joy, of Filey, about one mile east, and escorted her into harbour. She then made four more trips and in turn escorted in the Just Reward, Floreat, and Launch Out. She returned to her station at 2.10 P.M.—Rewards, £20 11*..
