As to the vessel he said that she was well equipped with anch- OTIS, lines and everything necessary and as an added precaution carried g small power life boat on 1eck. This boat was provided with pom toons to make it unsuitable but of course in big sea would fill with water. The Diana herself is one of the staunchiest of all the local gas boat fleet, was well powered and almost new.
