Boarding Boats
As the name suggests, Boarding Boats are generally used to access the All-Weather lifeboat moored off-shore.
In many locations they also proved invaluable being used for searching, helping moor large boats that have been towed in by the the All-Weather lifeboat, taking persons out of the water, allowing fast access to shallow or close-inshore waters near the stations.
