Naom Cait

Valentia, Co. Kerry.—At noon on the 24th of April, 1951, the Sea Fisheries Agent at Cahirciveen telephoned that the motor trawler Naom Cait, of Dublin, was missing with a crew of seven. At 12.15, the life-boat A.E.D.

left her moorings in a moderate sea with a southerly breeze and thick fog patches. She came up with the trawler, which had a faulty compass, four miles north-west of Cromwell Point, escorted her to harbour and reached her station again at 1.30 that afternoon.—Rewards, £5 13s..
