Rhyl, Flintshire - At i.i p.m. on 24th July, 1967, information was received that two flares had been seen north west of the life-boat station. The life-boat Anthony Robert Marshall was launched at i.io in astrong west south westerly breeze and a choppy sea. The tide was flooding. The life-boat came up with a converted exship's life-boat rigged as a scale model of the old H.M.S. Conway. The engine had failed and there were three people on board. A member of the life-boat crew was put aboard and a tow line was passed.

With the vessel in tow the life-boat returned to the harbour which was reached at 4 o'clock..
