Moelfre, Anglesey. At 9.15 on the evening of the 4th of January, 1959, the coastguard informed the honorary secretary that a fishing vessel had broken down with engine trouble twelve miles north-west of Point Lynas.

At 9.30 the life-boat Watkin Williams was launched in a rough sea, with a strong north-westerly wind blowing and an ebb tide. The weather was squally with sleet. The life-boat found the fishing vessel Isabel May of Belfast with a crew of two. She took her in tow to Moelfre Bay, but as the weather was uncertain she later towed her to Beaumaris pierhead, where the fishing vessel was secured. The life-boat reach- ed her station at 6.30 in the morning.

Rewards to the crew, £20 10s. ; rewards to the helpers on shore, £5..
