Vega

EMPTY YACHT ADRIFT Wicklow.—At 10.80 in the morning of the 10th of November, 1947, the owner of the sailing yacht Vega, of Wicklow, reported that his yacht was adrift 5 miles to the east and, as no other boat was available, asked for the life-boat's help. The motor life- boat Lady Kylsant was launched at 10.45 in a north-westerly breeze and fine weather, and towed the yacht into harbour, arriving back at her station at 12.50.—-Property Salvage Case..
