Dunbar, East Lothian. At ten o'clock on the morning of the 19th of March, 1958, a message was received that a fishing boat was in need of help twelve miles east-north-east of Dunbar.

At 10.25 the life-boat George and Sarah Strachan put out in a rough sea. There was a gentle north-easterly wind and a flood tide. At 12.25 the life-boat found the motor fishing vessel Gowan with her engine broken down. She had a crew of four. The life-boat took her in tow to the harbour, arriving at 2.45.
