Silver Spray
Falmouth, Cornwall.—At 12.15 on the afternoon of the 16th of May, 1955, the coastguard rang up to say that a man in the crab boat Silver Spray was signalling for help off Zone Point near the entrance to the har- bour. At 12.50 the life-boat Crawford and Constance Conybeare put out. The sea was rough, a fresh south-westerly wind was blowing, and it was high water. The life-boat found that the Silver Spray had broken down and was in danger of being driven on the rocks. She towed her to Restronguet Creek and arrived back at her station at three o'clock.—Rewards to the crew, £6 13s.; reward to the helper on shore, 8,9. 6d..
