Filey, Yorkshire.—At 1.40 early on the morning of the 22nd of June, 1957, the coastguard telephoned that a man and two women had landed at Filey in a dinghy. The man had reported that they had come from the yacht Rissa, which was on fire off Filey Brigg, and that her owner was still on board. At two o'clock the life- boat The Isa and Penryn Milsted was launched in a smooth sea with a gentle northerly breeze blowing. The tide was ebbing. The life-boat reached the yacht and the coxswain brought her alongside. The man, who was stand- ing on the remaining inches of deck which were not ablaze, jumped into the life-boat. He was wrapped in blankets and brought to the shore, where he was taken to hospital. The Rissa became a total loss.—Rewards to the crew, £6; rewards to the helpers on shore, £9 145..
