Contrasts between "William Riley" [1909 Rubie self-righting rowing], and the modern lifeboats. To the left is an Atlantic 85 [B-855 'Eric C Guest'] and to the right a pair of KNRM [Dutch] boats. The smaller one reminds me of a Brede. Will update when I can ID the two Dutch boats. OK, got the data ... Smaller one is the "Riet en Jan Wijk" and the larger is "Antoinette"

Having been launched at the ALB centre, "William Riley" has been rowed downstream, and is seen pulling into Poole Marina [The "Atlantic" RIB was acting as both pilot and a safety escort].
