Fishing Boats (2)

MAY 15TH. - FILEY, YORKSHIRE.

Several fishing boats were out, some crabbing and some fishing, and as at 10 in the morning three of the boats could not be seen from the coastguard’s look-out it was decided to search for them. At 10.25 the motor lifeboat The Cuttle was launched. A fresh N.N.W. breeze was blowing, with a moderate swell. The life-boat found the three boats about nine miles away and escorted them in.
