TOW ROPE PARTED Angle, Pembrokeshire. At 11.20 p.m. on 9th January, 1965, the coastguard informed the honorary secretary that a Belgian trawler was towing another Belgian trawler whose engine had broken down off St. Annes Head. The tow tope had parted and the assistance of the life-boat was required. The life-boat Richard Vernon and Mary Garforth of Leeds was launched at 11.59 in a westnorth- westerly wind of near gale force and a rough sea. It was two hours after high water. The life-boat reached the position and the Coxswain found that the tow rope had been re-connected between the two trawlers and the lifeboat escorted them until they were off the Milford Docks and then returned to her station at 3 a.m. on the zoth January..
