Runswick, Yorkshire - At 12.12 p.m.

on yth November, 1966, concern was felt for the fishing coble Embrace, of Staithes, as it was one hour after high water and a heavy inshore swell was making the harbour mouth a hazard. The crew of the coble reported that they would try to make the harbour, and so the life-boat The Elliott Gill was launched at 12.45 in a moderate easterly wind and a corresponding sea. She stood by until the coble reached the harbour and then escorted her through the harbour mouth. The lifeboat returned to her station at 2 o'clock..
