FISHING VESSEL AND FIVE TOWED TO SAFETY Valentia, Co. Kerry. At half past five on the morning of Saturday the 10th of August, 1963, Valentia Radio informed the honorary secretary that a fishing vessel was in difficulties south-west of Skelligs Rock. The life-boat Roland Watts was launched at five o'clock in a moderate north-westerly wind and slight sea. It was high water. The life-boat found the fishing vessel, the Ros Alither of Dublin, with five people on board, ten miles west of Skelligs Rock. She took the fishing vessel in tow and returned to her station at 2.10 p.m..
