The Solomon Browne, Penlee's lifeboat, went out to rescue the crew of the Union Star but all attempts failed and the Solomon Browne was lost as well as the Union Star. All eight members of the lifeboat crew died and it is a loss that is still felt very keenly in Mousehole. Everyone in the small community was affected by the disaster.
