Valentia, Co. Kerry.—At 4.5 on the morning of the 5th of June, 1957, a message was received from Valentia radio that the Irish Sea Fisheries trawler Naoim Cait was adrift fifteen miles south-west of Skelligs Rock.

The life-boat A.E.D. put out at 4.30 in a moderate sea. There was a gentle north-westerly breeze blowing and it was low water. The life-boat came up with the trawler eighteen miles south-west of Skelligs Rock. The trawler had a crew of five. Her engine had broken down and the life-boat passed a line to her and towed her to Valentia harbour, which was reached at 2.30.—Rewards to the crew, £20 13s.; reward to the helper on shore, £1 2s..
