Conway
Margate, Kent.—On the afternoon of the 10th of February, 1957, the life- boat Cunard was on passage from Brightlingsea to Margate to carry out temporary duty. At the entrance to the River Colne the coxswain saw a man standing up in a motor boat waving an oar. The life-boat went to the position and found that the engine of the motor boat Conway, of Clacton, had broken down. The sea was choppy, with a fresh west-north- westerly breeze blowing, and the boat was being driven ashore. The life- boat took her in tow to Brightlingsea and then continued on her passage to Margate.—Rewards to the crew, £5..
