I love the Shannon type, what a beauty! My life was saved by some of your brave men using a fast RIB to reach me, they did a wonderful job. I am deeply grateful to them and the joint efforts of the coastguard and ambulance service who were all helping out that day, they have taught me some huge extra respect for the Cornish ocean and it’s cold waters.

I was on holiday in Guernsey. Down there, moored, was a Severn Class. I was having a look from the pontoon as we had to walk past it with my grandparents and one of the crew said "hey mate, wanna come on board?". So I did.

The identification number is actually the boats length in metres, rounded to the nearest meter. That's where the seemingly random ID numbers come from. The second set of numbers is the boats serial number. 17-03 for example is the 3rd Severn Class (17M/51ft) to go into service.

I saw the Llanduno launched. What a rig ma-roll. Kept inland and had to be towed out. I think it has been replaced by a slipway launch in local harbour.

The way these life boats move through the water remind me of either an Elling or a Grand Banks. Both of which are amazingly built yachts.

Not as much fun as a free chopper ride but just as appreciated. Long live the RNLI.

Superb technical knowledge put to fantastic use......👍🇮🇲💙

Awesome, thanks RNLI this is so much informative... Really can't believe these boats come back to the normal position though it tilted fully. Just awesome.

Awesome!

This is the boat I need for tuna fishing in north east of America

The fleet is a long ways away from the Waveney-class lifeboat days. Solid boats but without the splash guards the coxswain was almost blind in heavy waves. You also always got wet. =)

I was in clogherhead to see the arrival of the new Shannon class 13-31 as she came ashore. It was bitter sweet thow to see the old boat 12-31 leave .she served clogherhead well over the years and she saved many lives in her service.

dejavoue88: I’ve boated all my life. The RNLI and animal charities are ones that I happily contribute to. Having rescued and towed a broken down boat through Langstone Harbour and back to the slipway he departed from (about 4 miles) yesterday (and I’m just a private boat owner) you would be amazed at the lack of preparedness by a significant percentage of water users. From the recent Bournemouth masses to those who buy a boat through eBay and think “it’s got a wheel and throttle - it must be the same as my car...” Perhaps those should pay to take training and make themselves less likely to be a statistic? Or you can suggest to your MP that a small percentage of harbour dues, mooring fees and marina income should be apportioned to the RNLI. But statistically you might find that the higher risk water users don’t enter that way and just roll down the nearest slipway (even if it is marked ‘private’). So a great idea and let’s get everyone giving.
