TOW FOR FISHING BOAT WITH PROPELLER FOULED Fleetwood, Lancashire. At 4.30 on the afternoon of the 17th December, 1962, the coastguard informed the honorary secretary that two red flares were being burnt near Wyre light. The life-boat Ann Letitia Russell was launched at 4.40 in a gentle southerly breeze and a slight sea an hour and a half after high water. The life-boat found the motor fishing boat Eleanora of Fleetwood with her trawl fouling her propeller. Another fishing vessel, Wild Rose, was standing by and attempting to take her in tow. The life-boat took over the tow from the Wild Rose, and the Eleanora was taken to Jubilee quay. The life-boat reached her station at seven o'clock..
