This section of the web directory is dedicated solely to the Lifeboat Services around the World. Many of these organisations come under the Coast Guard, but as around the UK and Ireland there are those which provide this important service from voluntary contributions.
Also it is hoped that assistance with this web page will be given by the various organisations as a means to ensure that the information put forward is correct and is regularly updated.
Not only will official sites be added to this section, but the very important contribution freely given by the numerous research groups and enthusiasts who have delved into the historical data relating to certain boats or stations.
There is also the invaluable addition provided by the men and women who serve on these lifeboats. If there is any aspect not covered please send an email to 'The Webmaster, web directory Lifeboats,
