Tenby, Pembrokeshire. At 6.52 on the evening of the 10th of December, 1960, an anticipatory message was passed by the coastguard to the honor- ary secretary reporting what appeared to be distress signals near the St.

Govan's lightvessel. There were light east-north-easterly airs, and the sea was smooth. At 7.29, on the flood tide, the life-boat Henry Comber Brown was launched to investigate flashing lights a mile and a half north-east of the lightvessel. On reaching the position the life-boat found the motor yacht Armour of Cardiff, with her engine broken down and two people on board.

She towed her to Tenby and returned to her station at 1.15 the next morning..
