Sea Gull
Moelfre, Anglesey. At 2.50 on the afternoon of the 15th of August, 1958, the coastguard told the coxswain that a rowing boat was in difficulties three miles east of Moelfre Island. Ten minutes later the life-boat Watkin Williams was launched in a choppy sea, with a fresh south-westerly wind blow- ing and an ebb tide. The life-boat found the rowing boat Sea Gull, with two adults and a child on board, drifting out to sea. They were trans- ferred to the life-boat, which then took the boat in tow to Bentleck Bay. The life-boat reached her station at 4.25.
