Bridlington: On the morning of November 27, 1975, Bridlington lifeboat, the 37' Oakley William Henry and Mary King stood by, with drogue streamed, while a coble and ten motor fishing vessels entered harbour. The wind was southerly strong gale force 9, the seas rough. Galatea was thrown almost into the harbour wall by the sea in this picture, but made a second successful run in.
