Over the next few pages we'd like to give you an insight into the history and day-to-day workings of our lifeboat station on the North East coast of England. You'll find all the latest news and you'll be able to keep right up to date with the rescues we take part in. Discover the facts and figures about our boats. There's even a bit of fun for our younger visitors. Please visit our companion web site - dedicated to The Zetland - Redcar's first, and the world's oldest surviving lifeboat.
