COBLES ESCORTED Amble, Northumberland. At 12.55 p.m. on I9th March, 1965, the coastguard informed the honorary secretary that two fishing cobles were due back at the harbour and as there was a rough sea asked if the life-boat would escort the cobles over the harbour bar. At 1.5 the life-boat Millie Walton proceeded on the flood tide and waited at the harbour bar. There was a light north-easterly breeze and a rough sea. The two cobles the Provider and New Dawn of Amble were escorted over the bar and at 1.30 the life-boat returned to her station..
