The Lifeboat Crew
In common with other Lifeboat Stations the Crew (apart from the Coxswain/ Mechanic), Launchers, Station official's, Local Branch members and fundraisers are all volunteers, prepared to contribute time and effort in various ways to man the boat, organise training, raise funds, publicise events and administer the Station.
It is essential to have multi skilled crew to man the Lifeboat with different combination of crew members. Left: Almost the full crew for the photograph during the opening ceremony of the extended and refurbished Lifeboat Station for the IB1 D Class Inshore Lifeboat D667
