Grimsby trawler NEATH CASTLE crippled off Orkney Isles

Grimsby trawler NEATH CASTLE crippled off Orkney Isles

   The Grimsby trawler NEATH CASTLE was reported to be crippled off the Orkney island of Westray with her engine room flooded.

   “Her crew were bailing out with buckets” reported a member of the Kirkwall lifeboat which returned with an injured member of the trawler’s crew, 38 year-old  Benjamin Powallard of Grimsby, who had been badly scalded by steam 30 hours earlier.   He was taken to hospital.

   The NEATH CASTLE was thought to be anchored after being towed by a second Grimsby trawler, the STOKE CITY.   A third trawler, the DERBY COUNTY, belonging to the same firm, had also arrived on the scene, and another trawler from Kirkwall, was on its way with pumps.

   The lifeboat, which had been out since 5am made its rendezvous with the STOKE CITY, with the NEATH CASTLE in tow, after a B.E.A. air liner had found them 60 miles off the Orkneys.   The ‘plane answered an urgent call to search for the trawlers.   Later it returned to Orkney to pick up passengers.
