Flamborough, Yorkshire. At 3.45 on the afternoon of the 29th of October, 1958, a message was received from a local fisherman that the fishing boat Our Confidence of Bridlington needed help six miles north-east of Flam- borough Head. The fisherman had been returning to harbour in his small coble when he had seen the fishing boat drifting, apparently with engine trouble.

At four o'clock the life-boat Friendly Forester was launched in a slight sea with a moderate south-westerly wind blowing and a flood tide. Visibility was poor. The life-boat made for the position, found the fishing boat, which had a crew of four, and towed her to Bridlington, arriving at seven o'clock.

She reached her own station at 8.10.

Rewards to the crew, £12 5s.; rewards to the helpers on shore, £12..
