An early fishing trip took ‘Stardrift’ out about 1 mile south-east of the West Pole Beacon, but she caught a lobster pot line round the propeller and so had no power. The Atlantic 85 was asked to assist, was launched and went to the boat and cut away the offending rope. Since some rope remained the boat was taken in tow and brought back to Sparkes marina.
