A Small Boat
Broughty Ferry, Angus.—Shortly after ten o'clock on the morning of Sunday, the 1st of October, 1950, the Carnoustie coastguard reported that the Abertay Light vessel had said a small boat was in difficulties off the light- vessel. A moderate easterly breeze was causing a considerable swell, when at half past ten the life-boat Mono -was launched. She found the boat two miles e'ast-by-north of the lightvessel without any serviceable gear. A large stone used as an anchor was being driven seaward. Two naval ratings were on board. The life-boat took her in tow and returned to Broughty Ferry, arriving at 12.20.—Rewards, £9 10s..
