TWO PICKED UP Eastbourne, Sussex. At 5.35 p.m. on 24th October, 1964, the coastguard told the honorary secretary that a small vessel three miles south of the station was signalling for help. The sea was smooth with light airs from the north-west and it was two hours before low water. At 6 p.m.

the life-boat Beryl Tollemache was launched. At 6.29 two young men were picked up from the fishing boat Which-a- Way which was drifting with her engine broken down, while a member of the life-boat's crew joined the third member of the fishing boat's crew to help him to arrange a tow line. The Which-a-Way was towed to safety and beached, the life-boat reaching her station at 6.55. A donation was made to the Institution's funds..
