A motorboat with 4 adults and 5 children had gone to Abermenai for the day. The motorboat was anchored off Abermenai point and party went ashore. 2 adults then attempted to get back to anchored vessel in small dinghy, but outboard engine failed and they were unable to row against strong ebb tide and a wsw wind gusting force 7. Lifeboat assisted by Plas Menai Rib which was in vicinity, recovered 2 adults and dinghy, and ferried whole party onto the motorboat. The motorboat then proceded back to its mooring at Moel y Don, assisted to moor safely and entire party ferried ashore by ILB.
