FOUR RESCUED IN DINGHY RACE Great Yarmouth and Gorleston, Norfolk.

At 11.54 on the morning of the 15th July, 1962, the coastguard informed the honorary secretary that a request for help had been received from the Gorleston yacht club, as two dinghies had capsized. A moderate north-east wind was blowing with a moderate sea. At 11.57 the life-boat Louise Stephens was launched on an ebbing tide. On reaching a position off Gorleston beach the life-boat found the capsized dinghies and took their crews, four people in all, on board. One dinghy was hauled on to the deck of the life-boat and the other taken in tow, and Gorleston was soon reached. The life-boat then returned to her station, arriving at 12.43..
