Amble, Northumberland. At 9.15 p.m. on i Qth April, 1965, the coastguard informed the honorary secretary that the weather conditions were deteriorating and as the local fishing coble Provider was still at sea, it was decided to launch the lifeboat Millie Walton, and she proceeded at 10.5. There was a strong northerly wind of gale force and a rough sea. It was two hours before low water. The life-boat found the Provider five miles south-east of Coquet and stood by until she had hauled in her nets. She then escorted her to Blyth as there was no possibility of entering Amble harbour, and arrived at 1.30 a.m. The life-boat returned to her station the next day..
