Courtmacsherry Harbour, Co.

Cork-At 7.50 p.m. on 3Oth August, 1966, a visitor informed the Barry's Cove lifesaving station that a launch was in difficulties in Dunworley bay. The lifeboat Sir Arthur Rose proceeded at 8 o'clock on an ebbing tide. There was a fresh south easterly breeze with a rough sea. The life-boat found the motor boat Sea Rambler, whose engine had failed, drifting towards the rocky shore. The Sea Rambler was taken in tow and brought safely to Courtmacsherry. After the boat had been moored at the jetty the life-boat returned to her station, arriving at 10.50.

Each member of the life-boat crew received a letter of thanks from the owner of the Sea Rambler..
