Falmouth, Cornwall.—At 5.45 in the evening of the 21st of June, 1950, the Porthscatho coastguard telephoned that the local motor pleasure boat MacCoy needed help. A quarter of an hour later the life-boat John and Mary Meiklam of Gladswood, on temporary duty at the station, was launched. The sea was rough with a strong north- westerly breeze blowing. She found the MacCoy, with thirteen people on board, off Porthscatho, having lost her rudder off Gull Rock. The life- boat towed her to Falmouth, reaching her station again at 8.30.—Property Salvage Case..
