CREW WERE SAFE Swanage, Dorset. At 6.7 p.m. on 12th April, 1964, the coastguard informed the assistant honorary secretary that a yacht had grounded on Kimmeridge Ledge. There was a gentle south-westerly breeze with a moderate sea. Visibility was poor. The life-boat R.L.P. launched at 6.21 and en route received a radio telephone message that the yacht was off shore at Freshwater Step. When the lifeboat reached the yacht the coxswain found that her crew had managed to get to the shore safely in a dinghy. The yacht was taken in tow to Swanage and the lifeboat returned to her station at 10.30..
