NIGHT SEARCH FOR DRIFTING CABIN CRUISER Selsey, Sussex. At 7.55 on the evening of the 26th January, 1963, the coastguard informed the honorary secretary that a message had been received from the Owers lightvessel that a cabin cruiser was drifting north of the lightvessel and had not replied to signals. At 8.10 the rife-boat Canadian Pacific was launched. There was a light northnorth- east breeze and a smooth sea, and the tide was half flood. With the help of her searchlight and parachute flares the life-boat searched widely, but she found nothing and returned to her station at 1.10 early on the 27th. It was decided to resume the search at daybreak, and at 6.30 the life-boat put to sea again. The lightvessel had reported seeing the cabin cruiser drifting in a westerly direction, and at 8.10 the life-boat found the Dee Dee with no one on board. The life-boat towed the cabin cruiser to Littlehampton, returning to her station at noon..
