Lowestoft, Suffolk.—About 10.48 in the morning of the 27th of November, 1949, the coastguard telephoned that a drifter was on the Newcombe Sandbank about a quarter of a mile to the east; and at 10.50 the life-boat Michael Stephens left her moorings. A moderate northerly breeze was blowing with a ground swell. The life-boat found the herring drifter Ocean Sunbeam, of Yarmouth, with a crew of nine, rolling and bumping heavily. The skipper asked the life-boat to stand by, and when she refloated the life-boat guided her clear. She returned to her station by 12.15 that afternoon.—Rewards, £9 16*..
