A Speed Boat
SPEED BOAT TAKEN IN TOW Donaghadee, Co. Down. At 2.28 on the afternoon of the 26th May, 1963, the coastguard informed the honorary secretary that a flashing light had been seen north-east of Orlock Head. The life-boat Sir Samuel Kelly put out at 2.50 in a gentle southerly breeze and a slight sea. The tide was ebbing. The lifeboat found a small speed boat with two people on board. The speed boat's engine had broken down, and she was taken in tow by the life-boat, which reached her station at 4.20..
