This print captures the former Longhope lifeboat T. G. B ON962 as it gracefully departs from Littlehampton, Sussex. The image holds a poignant story of resilience and heroism that unfolded on August 1st, 1970. Following a devastating capsizing incident during an attempt to reach the distressed Liberian cargo ship Irene amidst a violent storm, the vessel tragically claimed the lives of its brave crew members. However, this remarkable lifeboat was not defeated by tragedy. After undergoing extensive repairs and refurbishment, it was redeployed to Arranmore with renewed determination and purpose. This powerful image serves as a testament to both the indomitable spirit of those who risk their lives in emergency services and the unwavering commitment of organizations like RNLI (Royal National Lifeboat Institution) in safeguarding maritime communities.
