Abcrsoch, Caernarvonshire. At 4.35 p.m. on 15th June, 1965, the acting honorary secretary was informed that a canoe had capsized 500 yards south-east of Benor Head. At 4.40 the inshore rescue boat launched in a strong south-westerly breeze and short steep sea. It was low water. The IRB made for the canoe and picked up one of the crew of two who had become separated when the canoe had capsized. The remaining crew member swam with the canoe to shallow water.

The IRB returned to her station at 4.50 p.m. A donation to the Institution's funds has been received from a relative of one of the crew..
