A Rowing Boat (2)
Llandudno, Caernarvonshire. At 4.5 on the afternoon of the 27th of Septem- ber, 1958, the coastguard at Rhyl informed the coxswain that two men in a rowing boat were in difficulties one mile north of the pier. At 4.50 the life- boat Tillie Morrison, Sheffield was launched in a choppy sea, with a moder- ate south-south-easterly wind blowing and an ebb tide. She found that the two men had lost their anchor and had broken a rowlock. They were taken on board, and the life-boat towed the rowing boat to the shore, arriving at six o'clock. Rewards to the crew, £5 ; rewards to the helpers on shore, £6 10s..
