Available for over a year

The Poole RNLI crew are bidding a tearful farewell to one of their lifeboats. Following a coastal review by the RNLI, the all weather Tyne Class "RNLB City of Sheffield" is being retired. In 2017 Poole is to have a brand new D Class inshore lifeboat, to work alongside their existing Atlantic class boat. It's a decision that's not gone down too well in the town, as 麻豆社 Radio Solent's Neil Sackley has been finding out.
