Sheringham, Norfolk. — During the morning of the 7th of May, 1951, five local fishing boats put out; and as one of them was going back the weather got worse. The sea was also getting stronger and the wind increased. So, as one of the four boats still at sea was small, the life-boat Foresters Centenary was launched at 1.13 in the afternoon.

The sea was now rough with a strong north-easterly wind blowing. She es- corted each boat to shore and arrived back at her station at 3.25.—Rewards, £22 3s..
