St Abbs Harbour, Scottish Borders - a photo on Flickriver

            During our week's holiday in south-east Scotland in September we paid a return visit to the tiny fishing village of St Abbs, which is about three miles up the coast from Eyemouth. 

In the background is the lifeboat station. There had been a lifeboat here since the loss of a steamship and 16 of her crew in 1911, and the local community was dismayed when the RNLI withdrew the local lifeboat in 2015. An appeal was launched to pay for a new boat and Boyd Tunnock of Tunnock's Teacakes covered the majority of the cost. The new lifeboat was delivered in July 2016 and a 9-metre RIB with room for 12 survivors and four crew. The top speed is 47 knots and the range is 150 nautical miles.
