Cromer, Norfolk. At 6.20 on the evening of the 27th of August, 1958, the coastguard informed the honorary sec- retary that a yacht had broken down and was drifting east of Cromer. At 6.37 the motor vessel Antiquity of London approached the yacht and reported that although she was in no immediate danger the help of a life- boat might be needed. At seven o'clock the no. 1 life-boat Henry Blogg was launched in a moderate sea. A moderate south-easterly wind was blow- ing and it was high water. The life- boat found the yacht Wima three milesoff Trimingham with five people on board. The second coxswain went aboard her and made fast a tow rope.

The life-boat then towed the Wima to Yarmouth and returned to her station, arriving at 3.35. Property salvage case..
