TOW FOR MOTOR BOAT IN THICK FOG St. Mary's, Scilly Isles. At 7.50 on the evening of the 7th June, 1963, the coxswain learnt that the motor boat Phantee, with two people on board, had gone out fishing at five o'clock and had not yet returned. There was a thick fog forming. At 8.5 the life-boat Guy and Clare Hunter was launched in a light south-easterly wind and a calm sea. The tide was nearly half ebb. The life-boat found the Pliantee off the south-west point of Samson Island at anchor with her engine broken down. She took the boat in tow to St. Mary's harbour and then returned to her station, arriving at 8.45..
