While the watchman was on duty on the morning of the 7th April, during a W.N.W. gale, with a very heavy sea, a diving boat belonging to the Railway Company was seen to part from her moorings at 10.30 A.M. She drifted out to sea and a small motor boat made an unsuccessful effort to render help.

The Motor Life-boat K.E.C.F. was despatched and picked up the diving boat when she was about two miles from Rosslare Pier. A Life-boatman was put on board to bale and the boat was saved.—Permanent Crew, Rewards, 15s. 6d..
