Coverack, Cornwall. At 4.38 on the afternoon of the 17th of July, 1960, the honorary secretary was informed that a dinghy appeared to be in difficulties and was being blown ashore on Low- land Point. The life-boat William Taylor of Oldham was launched at 4.50 in a strong west-south-westerly breeze and a rough sea. It was two hours before low water. The life-boat went alongside the dinghy, which was in a dangerous position, and took off her crew of two. The life-boat took the dinghy in tow and before returning to her station picked up two other people from a second dinghy, which was also in difficulty. This dinghy too was taken in tow. The life-boat arrived back at her station at six o'clock. Rewards to the crew, £7; rewards to the helpers on shore, £5 8s..
