Lowestoft, Suffolk.—At 5.9 on the afternoon of the 23rd of June, 1955, the coastguard told the second cox- swain that a yacht was in difficulties south of Pakefield church, two miles south-south-west of the coastguard station. Eight minutes later the life- boat Michael Stephens put out. The sea was choppy, there was a moderate south-south-west breeze, and the tide was low. The life-boat found that the cabin cruiser Marina, which had a crew of two, had broken down. She towed her to the harbour, reaching her station again at 6.20.—Rewards to the crew, £4 10s.; rewards to the helpers on shore, 16s..
