Tramore, Co. Waterford. At 3.5 ^jn. on 26th June, 1965, members of the inshore'rescue'boat crew saw two people waving towels to attract attention at the foot of the cliffs about a quarter of a mile north-east of the station. The IRB had launched at 3 o'clock to train a new crew member. She made for the position in a slight to gentle south-westerly breeze and choppy sea. The tide was flooding. The two people1 were not in immediate danger and the coxswain decided that an extra,and experienced crew member was needed.

Having embarked the extra crew member, the inshore rescue boat returned to the two people and dropped anchor. The IRE was veered in on a line and a crew member climbed up the rocks to help the two people down to the boat. The anchor cable became entangled in seaweed and had to be cut, and the IRB was taken out under engine at 4.25. She returned to Tramore, where the two people were landed, and then went back to the foot of .the cliffs 'to .Tecoveif.her anchor and chain, finally returning to her station at 6.45 p,na..
