Loadstar
DRIFTING WITH FOULED PROPELLER Moelfre, Anglesey.—At midnight on the 7th of June, 1947, the coastguard reported flares, and the motor life-boat G.W. was launched at 12.15 on the morning of the 8th in a strong north- north-west wind with a moderate sea.
Four miles south-south-east of the life- boat station she found the motor launch Loadstar, of Beaumaris, with four men on board. Her propeller was fouled with a rope, and she had two anchors down, but she was drifting.
The life-boat towed her in, arriving at her station at 2.30 in the morning.— Rewards, £9 13*..
