Bridlington, Yorkshire. At 11.18 on the morning of the 3rd of February, 1960, the life-boat Tillie Morrison, Sheffield II was launched to stand by three local motor fishing vessels, which were entering harbour in very bad weather. There was a south-south- easterly gale, the sea was very rough, and it was two hours after high water.

The life-boat escorted the Winifred and the Express, which was leaking very badly, safely into harbour, but the third vessel, the Random Harvest missed the tide. The life-boat therefore re- mained afloat in the harbour, and at 4.30 put out to escort the Random Harvest, which was hove to in the bay, safely back. The life-boat reached her station at 5.30. Rewards to the crew, £15 15s. ; rewards to the helpers on shore, £9 10s..
