We took the crew off the Ebinezer wae the Lifeboat although I think some o them had been onto the rocks and returned in time for our gallant rescue!!.
It was a bonny bright morning in May I think the man on watch just fell asleep, easy done.
She was refloated after a week or two but never went to sea again.
This boat was in Orkney at one time and owned by Jimmy Newlands and was then named Favonious,
I mind her lying at Scapa Jimmy went down the West coast wae her but did not own her for long, she ended being owned by Victor Sutherland Fraserburgh at the time of the grounding

Favonian BF108 when Willie Sutherland,sons Victor Sutherland and Albert Sutherland bought her from Jimmy Newlands of Orkney in I think 1971. Renamed EBENEZER FR270.Written off 1991??
