City & State: Pekin, Il Years Aboard LT: Division How I found this Site: Just sailed in Comments: I found the statement bellow in the Lloyd Thomas log book. Monday, September 12 - Moored Newport, RI Hurricane Donna causing McCaffrey and Lloyd Thomas to pound each other. Captain commenced emergency breakaway. Proceeded to Narragansett Bay anchorage NOTE: Two crew members have stated they thought the Norris was the ship involved and not the McCaffrey. There is a possibility that the wrong ship was written into the log during the confusion and excitement of getting the ship untied and out into the bay. I was on the McCaffery during the storm and and it was the McCaffery that was dead in the water because both engine rooms were out of order. After being let go by the Lloyd Thomas we were rescued by one or two sea going tugs.
