Arrival of New Inflatable Rescue Boat

The end of 2015 marks the arrival of our new Arancia, Inflatable Rescue Boat, named J Tanner after our club's president who was one of the first people to establish lifesaving clubs in the country. 

The 3.8m inshore boat is a soft-hulled rib and the world’s most renowned type of rescue vessel. Our existing boat is 23 years old and from next summer will be used for events while the new one will be kept on the beach. 
The £10,000 new boat was Funded by a grant from the Big Lottery Awards For All.
