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! 🐋🐳🐬 See our Facebook page for more videos & Photos: facebook.com/KyleLifeboat

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 👉 rya.org/PzHs50SnhuJ

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.

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.

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

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. rnli.org/news-and-media/2022…. #rnli #peterhead #aberdeenshire #uk
A great story to read on a Monday morning about the positives of the @RNLI #FloatToLive campaign. rnli.org/pages/water-safety/…
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. #Education #SavingLives #RespectTheWater 👇👇
It was great to see you all today.
Thank you to the volunteers @RNLIPeterhead for your time today. The cadets from @AandSH_ACF have a great respect for what you do #savinglives

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? 👇 rnli.org/mayday?utm_source=f… #MyMaydayMile

⚠️ 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
Replying to @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.

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. geodienst.github.io/lighthou…
