Re: Pearl House

That old boat was the ex RNLI boat 'Langham'. The first motorised boat. Originally had a large Tyler petrol engine fitted. Self righting with brass balls to stop water getting into engine compartment. We restored it, used it for diving etc and eventually gave it back to the RNLI. It now lies back at Bembridge, Isle of White, where it was stationed. . 100 launchings, 100 loves saved. Frank
