SWEPT OUT TO SEA At 1.20 p.m. on 24th August, 1964, the local police told the honorary secretary that four youths had been swept out to sea in a small dinghy when their engine had failed. One of the youths swam ashore when the dinghy was by Penrhyn Point to seek help. The sea was rough with a strong south-westerly breeze. It was high water. At 1.27 the life-boat Watkin Williams was launched, and eight minutes later she reached the boat, took her in tow, and brought the three other youths back to Moelfre. The life-boat returned to her station at 3 p.m..
