A Dinghy (6)
Fishguard, Pembrokeshire. At 5.5 on the afternoon of the 18th of August, 1960, the coastguard informed the honorary secretary that a dinghy fitted with an outboard engine, with two children on board, had run out of petrol and was in the tide race half a mile north-north-east of Dinas Head. The life-boat Howard Marryat was launched in fine weather with a gentle south- westerly breeze blowing and a slight sea. It was high water. The life-boat escorted the dinghy about a mile and a half to Pwll-Gwaelod and returned to her station at seven o'clock. Rewards to the crew, £6; rewards to the helpers on shore, £2 12s..
