Two Small Sailing Yachts

ESCORTING YACHTS IN A FOG Howth, Co. Dublin.—At 11.80 on the night of the 24th of July, 1947, it was reported that two small sailing yachts from Howth were lost in fog, and the motor life-boat R.P.L. was launched at 11.45. There was no wind and the sea was calm. The life-boat found the yachts off Baldoyle Spit and escorted them back, arriving at one o'clock in the morning.—Rewards, £6 Is..
