Eastbourne, Sussex. At 3.50 on the afternoon of the llth of July, 1959, the coxswain received a message from the president of the Eastbourne sailing club that a dinghy had capsized two hundred yards off the promenade. The club members were unable to launch a boat because of the rough sea, and at 3.55 the life-boat Beryl Tollemache was launched in a strong south-westerly wind and an ebb tide. She reached the dinghy, rescued one person who was clinging to her, and took the dinghy in tow. The life-boat reached her station at 4.15. Rewards to the crew, £8 ; rewards to the helpers on shore, £9 8s..
