MOTOR YACHT WITHOUT FUEL Selsey, Sussex.—-At 4.5 in the morning of the 31st of October, 1947, the coast- guard reported that a motor yacht, short of fuel and moored to the stern of the Owers Light-vessel, needed help, and the- motor life-boat Canadian Pacific was launched at 4.20 in a fresh easterly breeze with a choppy sea.

She found the motor launch Marita, bound from Chichester to Rye with a crew of four, and towed her to Shoreham Harbour. She then returned to her station, arriving at 5.10 that afternoon.
