Tenby, Pembrokeshire.—At 5.53 on the evening of the 2nd of August, 1951, a resident at Waterwynch report- ed to the coastguard that a rowing boat seemed to be in difficulties in Water- wynch Bay. A later message made it two rowing boats. At 6.15 the life-boat John R. Webb was launched.

The sea was rough with a fresh souther- ly breeze blowing. Meanwhile an R.A.F. boat took the two boats in tow and a motor boat took four people on board, so the life-boat was not needed. But she saw an outboard motor boat, the Seran, drifting near Monkstone beach, and took her in tow instead, returning to her station by 7.15.—Rewards, £14 15*. 6d..
