Helen Sutton
Cloughey, Co. Down. At 10.56 on the morning of the 3rd of November, 1958, the life-boat Constance Calverley, which was at sea undergoing machinery trials, received a message by radio-telephone from the reserve life-boat Helen Sutton, which was on passage from Portavogie harbour to Beaumaris. The reserve life-boat had developed engine trouble seven miles south-south-east of South Rock lightvessel. There was a calm sea, a gentle north-west wind was blowing, and it was low water. The Cloughey life-boat made for the position of the reserve life-boat and towed her back to Portavogie harbour, arriving at 2.30.
