April 20th 2am Menai Strait

The Beaumaris Lifeboat was called out as two men, the same two men who were rescued in the early hours of Monday 18th April drifting in a rowing boat without oars, had again called the Coastguard to say they were drifting in a small fishing boat near Beaumaris.

The Lifeboat was launched and the crew searched the waters off Beaumaris while the Coastguard maintained a search from the land and spotted the two men watching the Lifeboat’s search from a vantage place at Mountfield. The Police were then called who dealt with the matter and the Lifeboat returned to the station.
