Stephen Harding, of Caldy Island
FEBRUARY 23RD. - TENBY, PEMBROKESHIRE.
While the motor boat Stephen Harding, of Caldy Island, was crossing to the mainland, she had trouble with her propeller shaft and had to anchor about a mile and a half south-west of Castle Hill, about seventy-five yards off the shore. A moderate north-east wind was blowing, with a slight sea. Three people were in the motor boat.
They burned a flare and the coastguard reported to the life-boat station. The motorlife- boat John H. Webb was launched at 7.30 in the evening and towed in the boat, arriving at 8.10. The rescued people sent a letter of thanks and a donation. - Rewards, £18 12s.
