The Severn Class lifeboat 17-05 "RNLB PRIDE OF THE HUMBER" in Hartlepool Marina.

She is stationed on the Humber and has been in service since 1997.

Can someone remind me as to where the Spurn boat is stationed since the point was irrevocably breached? Is she still on the Spurn mooring but with crew coming across from Grimsby, or can they get from Kilnsea? The families were relocated to Kilnsea or that area so are they still there?

Crews based on the point still, families off.

Thanks Patrick, I presume therefore that they can still get across the breach when needed?

Yes, I believe they now have two crews who spend 6 days on then 6 off.

Thanks Patrick, my brother (ex Redcar and Teesmouth LB) was asking as he has joined the Lifeboat Enthusiasts Society and mentions that they are meeting at Kilnsea in April
