The Mumbles, Glamorgan. At 1.36 on the afternoon of the 12th of August, 1960, the coastguard informed the honorary secretary that a small open boat with two occupants was flying dis- tress signals a mile and a half-mile south of Mumbles Head. The life-boat William Gammon—Manchester & Dis- trict XXX was launched at 1.55 in a gentle to moderate west-north-westerly breeze with a smooth sea. The tide was half ebb. The life-boat came up with the pleasure boat Roomer and towed her back to the Mumbles, arriving at 3.6. Rewards to the crew, £6; rewards to the helpers on shore, £5 4s..
