Scarborough, Yorkshire. — On the morning of the 30th of January, 1956, the weather worsened while three fishing cobles were at sea, and at 2.20 the life-boat E.C.J.R, was launched.

There was a very rough sea, a mod- erate south-south-east wind was blow- ing, and the tide was flooding. There was a heavy swell breaking across the harbour entrance, but the life-boat came up with the Pilot Me, Brilliant Star and Progressive, and escorted them all into the harbour, reaching her station again at 4.20.—Rewards to the crew, £7 10s.; rewards to the helpers on shore, £7 11s..
