Sweet Reason
Ramsgate, Kent. At 7.50 p.m. on 2ist August, 1965, a local yacht club told the honorary secretary that three yachts were missing in a race. One was thought to be dismasted five miles inside the North Goodwin lightvessel. The life-boat Michael and Lily Davis put out at 8.5 in a moderate south-westerly breeze and a rough sea. It was high water. The lifeboat found the yacht Sweet Reason dismasted near Broadstairs with a crew of four on board. The yacht was taken in tow and as the other two yachts had been accounted for, the life-boat returned to her station, arriving at 9.55 p.m..
