St. Ives, Cornwall. At 2.43 p.m. on 2ist August, 1965, the coastguard reported that a man had fallen off., or had been washed off, the rocks at Clodgy Point. At 2.45 the IRB launched in a fresh west-north-westerly breeze and rough sea. The tide was ebbing. She found the man had managed to scramble on to a ledge and was just able to hold on there. A member of the IRB's crew jumped on to the rocks to help the man board the IRB, which then sped back to her station, where the man was transferred to a waiting ambulance. The service was completed at 3.15 p.m..
