Sixty years ago this Sunday, an incredible rescue took place by RNLI Moelfre Lifeboat in Anglesey. Braving hurricane-force winds, a makeshift crew of volunteers, including one shore helper who’d never been out on a lifeboat before, successfully rescued those onboard the ship Hindlea before it was smashed on the rocks. For their heroic service, legendary Coxswain Richard ‘Dic’ Evans was awarded the first of his two RNLI Gold Medals, a Silver Medal to Mechanic Evan Owens and Bronze Medals to Donal

Watch the dramatic moment Moelfre RNLI rescue Thomas who was clinging onto an inflatable dinghy. Moelfre's D class lifeboat was launched quickly to someone being blown out to sea, drifting half a mile offshore. Thomas did the right thing by keeping hold of the dinghy and using it to stay afloat.
