A new £9, 000 inshore lifeboat was commissioned at Horton on Gower at the weekend
A new £ 9, 000 inshore lifeboat was commissioned at Horton on Gower at the weekend just in time for what promises to be a busy summer season.
Built by Avon Inflatables, of Llanelli, the new D Class vessel which will serve both Horton and Port Eynon was paid for by the RNLI.
The charity organisation arranged a concert at St DavidOs Hall, Cardiff, last March and the proceeds went towards funding the new lifeboat.
The Horton and Port Eynon inshore lifeboat station began in 1968 and the boat annually makes around 20 launches.
Picture shows: Mr. P. Bradley, deputy divisional Inspector of Lifeboats congratulates the chairman of Horton RNLI Mr. Bob Chatterton on the new lifeboat.
