Walmer, Kent. At approximately 3.5 p.m. on i6th May, 1965, life-boatmen at the boat house saw a sailing dinghy capsize half a mile from the station. At 3.5 the 1KB launched in a strong westsouth- westerly breeze and choppy sea. It was two hours after high water. The IRB succeeded in towing the sailing dinghy, which had been righted and had two people on board, to the beach. On proceeding seawards to cruise amongst other dinghies, the IRB found the motor boat Glynis, with two people on board, in difficulties with her engine broken down.

The motor boat was taken in tow to the shore and the IRB returned to her station at 4.30 p.m..
