Elsa
Dover, Kent.—About 10.15 in the morning of the 24th of September, 1951, Lloyds signal station on the Eastern Harbour Arm reported that a yacht was driving towards the Arm, and at 10.25 the life-boat Southern Africa was launched. A moderate south-south-west gale was blowing with a rough sea. The life-boat found the yacht Elsa, with one man in her.
Seas breaking right over her had swamped her engine. The life-boat towed her to the harbour and reached her station again at noon.—Rewards, £5 10s..
