DUTCH TRAWLER ASHORE Redcar, Yorkshire. At 2.50 p.m. on Saturday the 31st of August, 1963, the coastguard informed the honorary secretary that the Dutch trawler V.L.79, Maas of Vlaardingen, was ashore on the Saltscar rocks, three-quarters of a mile off Redcar. The life-boat City of Leeds was launched at three o'clock and found that the casualty was in no immediate danger as there was only a light breeze from the north-west and a slight sea. It was the first hour of the ebb. The lifeboat stood by until the trawler was refloated and escorted her clear, returning to her station at 4.15 p.m..
