DOS AMIGOS TOWED At 10.15 P-m. on 23rd February, 1964, the coastguard told the honorary secretary that the French trawler Rosaline Gorgy had found the fishing boat Dos Amigos of Newlyn, previously reported missing on passage from Fishguard to Newlyn, and was towing her to St. Ives.

There was a fresh south-easterly breeze with a rough sea. The tide was flooding.

At 12.58 a.m. the life-boat Edgar, George, Orlando, and Eva Child was launched as the vessels hove in sight to take over the tow. She took off from the trawler the crew of three of the Dos Amigos, and took the fishing boat in tow, bringing her safely into harbour at 2.15. The three survivors were landed and taken immediately to their homes by their relatives.

The Dos Amigos was moored in the harbour and the life-boat returned to her station at four o'clock. A donation was made to the funds of the Institution by the congregation of the Burho Methodist Church..
