Makrojak

Hastings, Sussex. — At 2.50 in the afternoon of the 6th of August, 1949, the life-boat motor mechanic saw a yacht dismasted three miles to the south-west, and the life-boat Cyril and Lilian Bishop was launched at 3.5 in a moderate south-westerly breeze with a moderate sea. She found the yacht Makrojak, of Liverpool, with a crew of four, towed her in and reached her station again at 4.57. The owner expressed his thanks.—Rewards, £40 8s..
