Torbay, Devon. At 5.35 p.m. on Friday, 23rd July 1965, the Brixham coastguard told the honorary secretary that a visitor had telephoned that two people were drifting out to sea in a small boat a mile off Orestone Rock. At 5.55 the life-boat Princess Alexandra of Kent put to sea. There was a fresh westerly wind, the sea was choppy and the tide was ebbing. The life-boat made a search and two miles north-east of Orestone Rock found the 12-foot outboard dinghy Anita Maree with a crew of two on a fishing trip from Paignton. She was drifting rapidly seawards and her crew were unable to re-start the outboard motor. The life-boat towed the Anita Maree to Brixham and returned to her station at 7.10 p.m..
