Port St. Mary, Isle of Man. At 12.30 on the afternoon of the 3rd of October, 1960, the local official of the Northern Lighthouse Board asked for the use of the life-boat to bring ashore a sick keeper from the Chickens Rock lighthouse, as it was too rough for the lighthouse tender. The life-boat R. A.

Colby Cubbin No. 2 left her moorings at one o'clock in a moderate southerly breeze with a slight sea and an ebb tide.

The sick man was taken off the light- house and landed at Port Erin. The life-boat returned to the lighthouse with the relief keeper and provisions, and arrived back at her station at 5.50..
