Ann Gail

Howth, Co. Dublin.—On the evening of the 13th of September, 1952, an air- craft reported to the Dublin harbour office that a yacht was in difficulties half a mile east of Bailey Light, and at 9.15 the life-boat R.P.L. was launched. The sea was calm with a light easterly breeze blowing, and she found the yacht Ann Gail, of Howth, with a crew of four. Her engine had broken down, and the life-boat towed her to Howth, reaching her station again at ten o'clock.—Rewards, £6..
