Mary Ann Hepworth (ON 808) crossing the harbour mouth bar at Whitby - probably leaving to escort the fishing fleet into safe waters. Showing her keel back at least as far as under the front of the engine cuddy ! (scan of an old postcard, unused and undated)

This ex-lifeboat is now (2015) berthed at Whitehaven. When I saw - and photographed - her previously; she was at Inverness on the Caledonian Canal. (ON 802 is a 46' Watson class, was "City of Edinburgh" when stationed at Wick 1938 to 1968, during which time she was launched 133 times and saved 204 lives, (earning a bronze medal in 1942), she then "retired" into the relief fleet until being sold in 1976)
