At 1.30 on the afternoon of the llth of August, 1960, the coxswain told the honorary secretary that a small fishing boat with two men on board was having considerable diffi- culty in making the shore. The life-boat Foresters Centenary was launched at 1.50 on the ebb tide with a fresh north- easterly breeze blowing and a moderate sea. The life-boat found the fishing boat Enterprise, with two men on board, and towed her to the shore. The life- boat returned to her station at 2.34.
