Hungry for more?
Want to know even more about lifeboats, lifeboat history, lifeboat stations and sea rescue? Then look no further than Lifeboats Past & Present, the magazine published three times a year by the Lifeboat Enthusiasts’ Society. The society brings together those with more than a passing interest in lifeboats and sea rescue. Formed over 50 years ago, it gives members a way of exchanging information on many aspects of lifeboats old and new, and of supporting the work of the RNLI. Each issue of Lifeboats Past & Present is packed with news, views, articles and information, as well as high-quality photos of lifeboats in the UK, Ireland and around the world. Topics include history, modelling and photography.
The society also produces an annual handbook, which includes detailed listings of the modern and historic lifeboat fleets, stations and much more. No lifeboat enthusiast should be without a copy. Membership costs just £18 a year (£25 for members outside
the UK) and is open to anyone over the age of 12.
