MAY 2 5TH. - CROMER, NORFOLK.

While the auxiliary yacht Betty was on her way from Lynn to Gorleston her engine broke down. A strong S.S.W. wind was blowing, and as she was unable to beat round to Cromer under sail she anchored off Sheringham. Her crew of three got ashore, and the owner telephoned to Cromer at 5.10 P.M. asking for a tow. At 5.45 the No. 1 motor life-boat H. F. Bailey was launched and towed the Betty to Gorleston, arriving at midnight. She left again at 5.30 A.M. next morning and arrived at Cromer at 9.30 A.M.
