Donaghadee, Co. Down. At noon on the 13th of July, 1958, the Orlock coastguard informed the honorary secretary that a boat had capsized off Carrickfergus in Belfast Lough. At12.20 the life-boat Edmund and Mary Robinson, on temporary duty at the station, put out in a heavy sea. There was a gentle north-north-westerly wind and an ebb tide. The life-boat was making for Carrickfergus, when a message was passed to her that another yacht, with four people on board, was in difficulty at Crawfordsburn, Helen's Bay. The life-boat made for this position and found the yacht Linda.

Her crew were very exhausted and were taken on board the life-boat. The yacht was taken in tow, and the life- boat reached her station at three o'clock. The boat originally reported in difficulties was towed to Carrick- fergus by another boat. Rewards to the crew, £8 8s. ; reward to the helper on shore, 14s..
