Bev
Ramsgale, Kent. — At 6.39 in the evening, on the 14th of May, 1950, the coastguard telephoned that a small boat was making heavy weather half a mile off Dumpton Gap. At 6.45 the life- boat Mary Scott, on temporary duty at the station, was launched. A fresh east-north-east breeze was blowing with a rough sea. She found the boat Bev, of Broadstairs, at anchor near the rocks, with four men on board. Soon after the life-boat had rescued the exhausted men she sank. The life- boatmen towed her clear, got the water out of her and lifting her on to the life- boat, returned to harbour. They arrived at 7.35.-—Rewards, £6 13s..
