olb - Saltire again
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)
