A Dinghy (1)
Dun Laoghaire, Co. Dublin - At 5.10 p.m. on 2nd September, 1966, a dinghy with a crew of two was reported to have capsized one mile east of Mugglins.
At 5.15 the life-boat Dunleary II left her moorings in a strong westerly wind and a choppy sea. The tide was ebbing. The life-boat came up with the dinghy, which had been taken in tow by a trawler, and took on board one of her crew. The other had been picked up by the trawler. The life-boat returned to her moorings, arriving at 6.15..
