Breadwinner
Hastings, Sussex. At ten o'clock on the morning of the 13th of October, 1958, the honorary secretary asked the coastguard for information about three fishing vessels which had gone to the fishing grounds the previous evening, for the weather was deteriorating. He learnt that two of the vessels had returned safely, but that the third, the fishing vessel Breadwinner, was about to leave the fishing grounds for Hast- ings. There was a rough sea with a strong south-westerly wind blowing, and at 11.20 the life-boat M.T.C. was launched at high water. She found the Breadwinner and escorted her safely to Hastings, arriving at 1.4. Rewards to the crew, £8 15s. ; rewards to the helpers on shore, £19 12s..
