COASTER ON ROCKS At 7.32 p.m. on the i6th February, 1965 the coastguard informed the honorary secretary that the coaster Glencoy had gone ashore and needed assistance. The life-boat R.A. Colby Cubbon No. 3 was launched at 8.5 in a light variable wind and a rough sea. The tide was ebbing.

The life-boat reached the coaster at 9.20 when her crew were taken aboard to await high water. She then assisted to tow her off the rocks, and returned to her moorings at 9.20 a.m. on the iyth February. A gift was made to the life-boat crew by the owners of the coaster, and the life-boat crew donated part of this gift to the branch funds..
