The volunteers of the RNLI are still at Tramore. It must be the only Royal organisation remaining in the Republic of Ireland. www.rnli.org.uk/rnli_near_you/ireland

Martin Black, author of our publication, ‘G.L. Watson – the Art and Science of Yacht Design’, came up with the following information on this Tramore lifeboat, named “Henley”, after her donor, Mrs G. Henley of Highbury. She was designed by G.L. Watson, Glasgow, Scotland (design no. 233) in 1892, and built by Chambers & Colby of Lowestoft, Suffolk, England, as a sailing and pulling, non-self-righting lifeboat. She weighed 3 tons 5 cwt (very light for a lifeboat) and was specifically designed to be very lightweight to allow launching from the soft beach at Tramore. “Henley” was 32 ft long with a beam of 8 ft and carried 10 rowers. “Henley” was based at Tramore from 1893 to 1918 and saved 19 lives.

[http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Great stuff! Thanks Quasymody, interesting re the Whiteheads. I've sent the image to one of the local history societies - hopefully they can use it!

Lovely photo. Is there a good reason why it's geo-tagged to Salford, Lancashire, rather than somewhere in Australia? If there really is a connection, please share.

That got me thinking too. Possibly due to links with Beatrice Kerr who did a tour in the area about that time - collections.sea.museum/en/objects/164484/program-for-a-co...
