The S.S. St. Kenneth
STRANDED ON THE BREAKWATER Holyhead, Anglesey.—A minute be- fore midnight on the night of the 31st of March, 1948, the coastguard reported that the s.s. St. Kenneth, of Dublin, anchored off the breakwater, was drag- ging her anchors and had signalled for help. The motor life-boat A.E.D. was launched at 12.25 in a strong south- westerly gale, with a very rough sea, and found the steamer stranded on the breakwater. The life-boat put a life- boatman on board to help get her off.
She refloated three hours later and anchored. The life-boat returned to her station at 4.45.—Property Salvage Case..
