LEAKING MOTOR BOAT At 4.17 p.m. on 13th July, 1964, the coastguard told the coxswain that a white motor boat off South Stack was in trouble.

There was a slight sea with a gentle southwesterly breeze. The tide had been ebbing for two hours. At 4.25 the life-boat St.

Cybi (Civil Service No. 9) was launched.

After 15 minutes the leaking motor boat, which also had engine trouble, was found within a few yards of the South Stack rocks. There was one person aboard. She was taken in tow to Holyhead harbour, which was reached at 5.30. The life-boat returned to her station at 6.10..
