User:BoulmerLifeboat/Boulmer lifeboat

Boulmer Volunteer Lifeboat Service or Boulmer Lifeboat call sign Boulmer Rescue is based at Boulmer in Northumberland, and operates one of the few inshore lifeboats in the UK that are fully independent of the RNLI. A lifeboat at Boulmer was first documented in 1825, used by the RNLI until 1967. This was until 1967 when the RNLI pulled out due to modern equipment and new advances in safety and reliability rendered the boat obsolete.

The new current lifeboat, the yet to be named boat (a Tornado built rib 5.5 meter powered by a 40hp EvinRude etec was purchased in mid 2013.)
