EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the 22nd of June in 1960. The scene captures a moment of both urgency and determination as the Ferryside Lifeboat races down the slipway on its half tracked carriage. With two guide ropes held tightly by the launching crew, it is clear that every effort is being made to ensure a successful launch. The significance of this image becomes even more poignant when we learn that this station is due to be closed at the end of the month. It serves as a reminder of the vital role played by emergency services such as lifeboats in safeguarding our shores and protecting lives at sea. The presence of charity organizations like RNLI (Royal National Lifeboat Institution) further emphasizes their commitment to rescue missions and saving lives. This particular snapshot showcases not only the bravery and skill of these dedicated crews but also highlights their reliance on teamwork and precision during critical moments. Carmarthen Bay provides an atmospheric backdrop for this historic event, adding depth to an already compelling composition. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph captured by Cooke, we can't help but feel admiration for those who risked everything to keep others safe amidst treacherous waters.
