Plans for the new lifeboat station in Wells to house the forthcoming Shannon-class lifeboat have been submitted to the planning authorities and will be available for the public to view at a specially organised event at Wells Sailing Club on the east quay on Tuesday 5th December. Please drop in at any time from 3pm to 7pm... all our welcome.
If you can't make this date, we will have the plans on display at the boathouse at our annual carol service on Sunday 17th December.
Bridlington lifeboat is the latest station on the East Coast to swap over from a Mersey class lifeboat to a new Shannon, joining Shannons already in service at Lowestoft, Skegness, Scarborough and Amble. Bridlington's boat 13-22 'Antony Patrick Jones' officially went on service this week.
