Details
The meaning of lifeboat or motor lifeboat, for the purposes of this article, is that of 'a shore-based boat designed with special features for searching for, rescuing and saving the lives of people in peril at sea in inshore waters'. This is in contrast to a survival craft type of lifeboat that is carried aboard passenger ships for use when the mother ship must be evacuated. Offshore maritime rescue is generally carried out by ships rather than by smaller boats, and the term 'coastguard cutter' is sometimes applied to such special vessels intended for rescue at sea. The term lifeboat is the preferred one for this type of rescue craft in the United Kingdom and Ireland however there are comparable versions of the word in use by other northern European nations. 'Lifeboat' so used typically refers to specialized shore-based vessels manned by volunteers, intended for quick dispatch, launch and transit to reach a ship or individuals in trouble at sea. Characteristics such as capability to withstand heavy weather, fuel capacity, navigation and communication devices carried, vary with size. A vessel and her crew can be used for operation out to, say, 20 nautical miles away from a place of safe refuge, remaining at or on the scene to search for several hours, with fuel reserves sufficient for returning; operating in up to gale force sea conditions; in daylight, fog and darkness. A smaller IRB inshore rescue boat ILB inshore life boat and her crew would not be able to withstand these conditions for long.
