Life-boat 70-001 off The Mumbles Glamorganshire - At 7.21 p.m. on 2nd July, 1966, the coastguard informed the coxswain that a man had been carried through Inner Sound by the tide. The life-boat Charles H. Barrett (Civil Service No. 35) launched her IRB at 7.22 in a moderate west-south-westerly wind and a slight sea. It was one hour after high water.

The IRB went to Inner Sound and found a man, in an inflated rubber tyre, among the rocks on Middle Island. He was taken aboard the IRB and landed on Bracelet bay beach. The IRB returned to the life-boat, arriving at 7.32..
