The Club also purchased a second smaller (14 foot) half-cabin aluminium boat, ' Tulum ' Scout, in 1975. This served as a start-up boats and inshore buoy-laying u-boat. The training for positions of Skipper and Mate of this boat was included in the training program. Later, in 1979, John Williams and Jim Spalding inspected the Point Leo patrol boat, a DeHavilland Hercules, for which PT. Leo were experiencing difficulty in finding crew. This was purchased, and became the next ' Tulum Scout ', the old one being sold. It gave good service, despite a beach capsize, and a near disaster in a tide rip, when it was dragged under the water stern-first, snagged on a permanent buoy. A rubber inflatable was also purchased, to provide for activities near the Club, for example,laying buoys for races for juniors, for working close to reefs and so on. A third small boat, ' Rescue ', WPwas purchased in 1990.
