Tenby, Pembrokeshire.—At twelve noon on the 10th of February, 1953, the Superintendent of Trinity House asked if the life-boat would take a mechanic to the Helwick lightvessel, as the light needed attention. At 9.35 on the morning of the llth the life-boat John R. Webb was launched, with the mechanic and stores on board, in a strong northerly breeze with a rough sea. She reached the lightvessel at 11.30, put the mechanic and stores aboard, and returned to her station, arriving at 1.50. At 5.30 the coast- guard said the lightvessel had asked if the life-boat would launch again to take spare parts for the mechanic, as no other boat was available. At 9.30 on the morning of the 12th she embark- ed the spare parts and also took on board two monks and a woman, as well as mail and provisions for Caldy Island, and was launched again. She put the spare parts aboard the light- vessel and then went to Caldv Island, where she landed the passengers, mail and provisions. She reached her sta- tion again at two o'clock in the after- noon.—Rewards: 1st service, £17 17s.; 2nd service, £22 12*.—proportion re- funded by Trinity House..
