Scope and content
Submarine refloated after 20 hours aground.
With waves breaking around their waists, men of the submarine Sunfish which grounded in Sandown Bay, Isle of Wight during the last day's gale, secured a tow rope to the bow. But when an attempt was made to tow the vessel, the hawser snapped.
Photo shows: An aerial view showing heavy seas breaking over the submarine Sunfish which was towed clear early today by an Admiralty tug in the blaze of a cruiser searchlight.
