Rose Marie

Great Yarmouth and Gorleston, Norfolk - At 2.55 p.m. on 1st November, 1967, the coastguard informed the honorary secretary that a small fishing boat which had been under observation for some time appeared to be making little headway against wind and tide. The life-boat Khami slipped her moorings at 3.9 in a south south easterly gale and a rough sea. It was low water. The life-boat came up with the fishing boat Rose Marie, with two people and a dog on board, three quarters of a mile north north east of the harbour entrance.

The fishing boat was taken in tow to moorings and the life-boat returned toher station at 4.25..
