El Moroco
Falmouth, Cornwall.—At 7.45 on the morning of the 5th of November, 1954, a message was received that a motor vessel was drifting towards Trefusis Point, in Falmouth Harbour. At eight o'clock the life-boat Crawford and Constance Conybeare put out.
The sea was rough and a strong wind was blowing from the south-south-east.
The life-boat made for the position in a flooding tide and found the motor vessel El Moroco, of Belgium, with a crew of three, on the rocks. A tug was standing by, and the life-boat passed a rope to her from the vessel.
The tug towed her clear and took her to the harbour, where the life-boat berthed her at 9.15.—Property Salvage Case..
