Dun Laoghaire, Co. Dublin - At 8.20 p.m. on 23rd July, 1966, a small yacht appeared to be in difficulties in Dublin bay. There was a fresh westerly breeze with a choppy sea. The life-boat Dunleary II proceeded at 8.35 on an ebbing tide. She soon came up with a small dinghy with three people on board which was rapidly drifting seaward. The dinghy was taken in tow to Dun Laoghaire, arriving at 10.15..
