St. Mary's, Isles of Scilly.—Just before four o'clock in the afternoon of the 29th of March, 1948, the coastguard reported a motor boat that appeared to be in difficulties off Lizard Point, Tresco. The wind was rising. By five o'clock a south-south-east gale was blowing with a rough sea, and at 5.15 the motor life-boat Cunard was launched. She found the fishing boat Peaceful, of Scilly, anchored off Dia- mond Ledges, Tresco. with a man and two women aboard. .Her engine had broken down. The life-boat put a man 011 board her and towed her to an anchorage. She returned to her station at 0.20 that evening—Rewards, £8 125.
