Port Erin,
there has been an Atlantic 21
'B' Class ISL Lifeboat "Herbert and Edith" replacing the 'Rother' Class
Lifeboat, "Osman Gabriel" since 1992. And is located on the south-west corner of the
island,
and is flanked by Peel to the north, and Port St. Mary on the East coast http://www.porterinlifeboat.iofm.net |

Peel
is
the Northerly flanking station to Port Erin. The Mersey class Lifeboat, "Ruby
Clarey" was stationed at Peel in 1992. It is carriage launched on a slipway
adjacent to the outer breakwater with the boathouse neatly placed under Peel
Castle at the start of the breakwater. With Peel and Port Erin being the only two stations on the
West coast of the island, a lot of calls involve the two stations working
together. http://www.corkish.net/peel/ |

Port St. Mary is the Easterly flanking station to Port Erin. The station
currently has two lifeboats on station there, a 'D' class inshore lifeboat
"Hounslow" and the newest lifeboat on station in the island,
a Trent class lifeboat "Gough Ritchie II". The Trent is on an afloat
mooring next to the outer breakwater, while the 'D' class and boarding boat
are housed in the boathouse just at the start of the breakwater. |

Ramsey in the North
of the Island also has a Mersey class Lifeboat, the "Ann and James Ritchie"
which was stationed at Ramsey in 1991. It is carriage launched off the main sandy
beach. They cover most of the North and North-East coast of the Island.
