RNLI unveils new lifeboat

A jet-powered lifeboat that is faster, easier to manoeuvre and boasts a much bigger range than current vessels was unveiled yesterday by the Royal National Lifeboat Institution.
The FCB2 - pictured being put through its paces in Poole bay, Dorset - can be launched in just a metre (3.28ft) of water, making it ideal for locations without harbours, and can be landed high on the beach so that casualties can be taken to hospital more quickly.

This is good news, I hope the boat goes into full production. I am sure there will be plenty of fisherman very happy at this news
