The volunteer crew of Beaumaris Lifeboat Station were called out in response to a May Day from a boat off Puffin Island. The 23ft boat with two males on board had a rope caught round its prop and on the lifeboat’s arrival at the scene was 10ft away from the rocks off the Island. The crew towed the boat to the Fairway Buoy and handed it over to Conwy Lifeboat. During the tow the rope was freed from around the prop so the 23ft boat was able to proceed under its own power but was escorted by Conwy Lifeboat back to Conwy Marina.
