On 22nd July 1966 fifteen people, among them four children, were killed in a ferry boat accident in the Mawddach Estuary near Dolgellau. Thirty-nine people were on board the Prince Of Wales ferry as it was nearing the end of its pleasure trip from Barmouth to the George III hotel when the tragedy happened. The skipper was manoeuvring the boat towards the jetty when the vessel was washed into the wooden toll bridge at Penmaenpool and the passengers were thrown into the fast-running incoming tide.

Rescue efforts were initiated by the hotel's proprietor, John Hall, who along with his daughter Christine and the hotel's chef, David Jones and barman, Robert Jones, entered the water to take survivors ashore. Mr Hall's wife, Meinir and their youngest daughter Gail, then tended to those rescued in the hotel.
