ESCORTING A YACHT Southend-on-Sea, Essex.—At 7.0 in the evening of the 4th of April, 1947, the Warden Point coastguard reported that a yacht was ashore on Redsands about two miles south-east of Redsand Towers and that seas were breaking over her. A fresh north-north-west breeze was blowing, with a rough sea. The motor life-boat Greater London, Civil Service No. 3 was launched at 7.20 and found the motor yacht Arthur Rogers, with a crew of six. Her engines had broken down, but the owner said that they were now working again and asked the coxswain to stand by until the yacht reached a safe anchorage. The life-boat escorted her to Southend, and arrived back at her station at 12.20 next morning.—Rewards, £15 18s..
