RNLI Shannon Week

A little off the RIB topic but apparently it’s the 5 year anniversary this week of the introduction of the Shannon Class Lifeboat...

Out of curiosity, is anyone on here crew aboard a Shannon?

Well, he had a Birthday last week and he's filled out a bit - but I'd say he was still "operational". He managed Donegal - Stornoway in a day two weeks ago...
