A Rowing Boat (1)
APRIL 7TH. - POOLBEG, CO. DUBLIN.
Three men in a rowing boat were seen at 1.5 in the afternoon to be drifting towards the north wall breakwater, and the motor lifeboat Helen Blake, with the second-coxswain in charge, was launched at 1.25. A strong south-westerly breeze was blowing, and the sea was rough. The life-boat found the boat, but she was empty. Her crew had been rescued by a schooner. The life-boat towed the boat to Pigeon House harbour, and reached her station again at 2.15 that afternoon.
