Selsey, Sussex. At 7 a.m. on 2ist August, 1965, a yacht was seen burning flares off Hayling. At 7.22 the life-boat Canadian Pacific was launched. A gale* was blowing from the south-west, thesea was very rough and the tide was; ebbing. The life-boat made a search and found the sailing yacht Danae, of Fecamps, with a crew of four who were having difficulty with the sails. A helicopter was with her. The Danae's engine was not giving enough power for steerage way so the life-boat towed her to Portsmouth and returned to her station at 1.20 p.m..
