Dover Lifeboat 'RNLB City of London II'.

Dover lifeboat 'RNLB City of London II', seen here moored close to the Dover Lifeboat Station, is a Severn Class lifeboat in service since 1997 and named after the longest river in Britain. The small building to the left of the clock tower in the background is the original lifeboat station dating back to the 1800's. A total of 46 of these boats were built at a cost of £2m each. Dover lifeboats have been saving lives at sea since 1837 and received over 30 awards for gallantry since that time.
