Peterhead Lifeboat

Saving lives since 1865, Peterhead Lifeboat safeguards mariners along the NE coast of Scotland from Collieston south of Peterhead northwards to Rattray Head.

What a sight to see when your out training.

Some of our crew were out training this morning and had some company in the form of 5 Humpback Whales & over 100 Dolphins! 🐋🐳🐬

Research shows that lifejackets improve survival rates by up to four times when immersed in cold water.

As we head into summer, here’s everything you need to know about lifejackets, buoyancy aids, servicing and how to stay safe on the water 👉 https://t.co/aq4V1PpkQD

The visit included a tour of our facilities, a demonstration of our equipment, and discussions on how we can collaborate more effectively during emergencies.

We look forward to continued cooperation and mutual support with the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service.

[Peterhead Lifeboat @RNLIPeterhead]

On Monday night, we welcomed Peterhead’s White Watch from the @fire_scot . It was a great opportunity to strengthen our community ties and share insights into our respective operations.

Last night we very glad to have a presentation at the station with friends and family in attendance where coxswain Pat Davidson received a chairman’s letter of commendation and crew members all received the lifesaving operations director’s letter of commendation. #rnli #peterhead

The team showed unbelievable bravery in the face of a truly terrifying situation. Watch the intense rescue mission here 👇

From medical emergencies to a kayaker being swept out to sea, our lifeboat crews and lifeguards have been busy all around the coast this week 👇

Aberdeen Coast Guard requested the support of Peterhead's All-weather Lifeboat after a mariner on an offshore supply vessel became unwell on the vessel's bridge on Friday 12th August. https://t.co/8lbASwATRm. #rnli #peterhead #aberdeenshire #uk

A great story to read on a Monday morning about the positives of the @RNLI #FloatToLive campaign. https://t.co/GT51NRyz9c

[Jonathan Mustard @JMScotAmb]

Fantastic to see that another life has been saved by using the #FloatToLive method. Even more encouraging is that this was a child telling another child how to use it.
Well done Finley & well done @RNLI.

We’re preparing for a busy summer as more people head to the coast. Help power our lifesaving by doing the Mayday Mile.

Whether you walk, run or roll. Go it alone, or with a group. Go a mile or more.

Will you go the distance? 👇

⚠️ It looks highly likely that Peterhead will miss the worst of Storms Dudley and Eunice but if you find yourself in other regions please see the advice below from the RNLI ⚠️#RespectTheWater

[RNLI @RNLI]

With Storms Dudley and Eunice set to batter our coasts this week, please #RespectTheWater. Check weather, tide and swell forecasts before you consider heading to the coast and avoid taking unnecessary risks by staying well back from stormy seas and breaking waves.

[RNLI @RNLI]

As we all look for the first signs of spring, our volunteers look to their kit and training to ensure they are ready for anything.

Here are the lighthouses of Europe.

The map is even better than it might seem at first glance: the colors are the real colors, the patterns are the real patterns, and the size of the dots is the distance at which each light is visible. https://t.co/y7QzV1v7GF

A fantastic feature here from @NeilDrysdale featuring the heroic stories of Peterhead Lifeboat Coxswain John McLean and crew 👏👏 #peterhead #peterheadlifeboat #rnli

[Neil Drysdale @NeilDrysdale]

In January 1942, Peterhead's lifeboat crew took part in a series of rescue operations which helped save more than 100 lives amidst a raging gale. Coxswain John McLean won the "Lifeboat VC" for his endeavours. They were all heroes! @RNLI https://t.co/y9NDbhgNiN via @pressjournal
