Atlantic 75 Inshore
Lifeboat

B766 "BBC Radio Cleveland"
The Atlantic 75 takes its name from Atlantic College in
Wales where its predecessor the Atlantic 21 was first developed. Even though her
twin 70hp outboard engines make her one of the fastest lifeboats in the fleet,
her hull design provides a softer ride than her predecessor for the three crew
and survivors
Our Atlantic 75 was placed on station
in 2000 and was paid for by the listeners of BBC Radio Cleveland.
