Product Details
The RNLI’s 60ft Barnett motor lifeboats, their history and design
The large 60ft Barnett lifeboats, designed and built in the 1920s, were the first twin-screw motor lifeboats in RNLI service, the first to have cabins to protect their volunteer crews, and were the embodiment of the latest in life-saving technology at the time of their introduction.
This book records the design, development and service history of the four 60ft Barnett lifeboats, the largest lifeboats in the world at the time. It also details their post-RNLI careers, with all four boats in private hands and most in use.
This thoroughly researched history of the 60ft Barnett lifeboats contains many previously unpublished photos, and provides a record of the one of the most significant and largest lifeboat types of the 20th century.
