WAS TOWED CLEAR Stornoway, Outer Hebrides. At 3.15 a.m. on i8th September, 1964, the coastguard told the honorary secretary that a vessel was lying close inshore at Holm Head in a moderate sea with fresh to strong north-westerly breezes. It was one hour before high water and the vessel, the Spanish trawler Rigil, was hard aground. At 4.25 the life-boat The James and Margaret Boyd put out, reaching the Rigil in 10 minutes. A tow rope was attached to the trawler and the combined efforts of the engines of both vessels resulted in the trawler being towed clear safely. The life-boat escorted the trawler into Stornoway and returned to her moorings at 5.30..
