MAY 11TH. - SCARBOROUGH, YORKSHIRE.

Cobles were out fishing, and at 11.45 in the morning, as a strong easterly wind was blowing, with a rough sea, the life-boat coxswain decided that it was not safe for them to come in unescorted, and launched the motor life-boat Herbert Joy II.

She found the cobles about a mile and a half N.E. of Scarborough Castle. They were the Evelyn and Margaret and the Courage. The life-boatmen gave lifebelts to the crew of the Evelyn and Margaret, escorted her in, went out again and escorted in the Courage. She returned to her station at 1.45 in the afternoon.
