Five Of her boats were launched

The first intimation OF the disaster was
the arrival OF a fishing boat at Yarmouth
with six bodies which she had picked up
in the vicinity of the spot where the Cobra
was last seen. According TO the fishermen,
the Cobra was sighted by the lightship off
Dowsing Sands yesterday morning en-

struck a rock, and that she sank immedi-

The Cobra, like her sister boat, the Viper.
was a turbine-engined vessel. She had just
left the yard of her contractors and was
undergoing a boiler test.
About one year ago the torpedo boat de-
stroyer Cobra beat the record of the Viper
and won the title of the fastest vessel in
the world. The record of the Viper, which
was afterwards wrecked, was forty-three
miles an hour. while the Cobra, in an un-
official trial over the same course that
sailed by the Viper, at the mouth of the
Tyne. made 377 knots, 43.5 miles.
