The boat had first called at the marina pontoon before being taken back to the boat house on its launching trailer. August 06, 2002.<br /> <br /> The Talus MB-H used to move the boat is a continuous track launch tractor which was specifically designed for the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI), to launch and recover carriage mounted lifeboats, particularly the Mersey-class lifeboat, from beach-launched lifeboat stations. In total, 31 tractors were manufactured by Clayton Engineering Limited of Knighton, Powys. <br /> <br /> click here for more photographs of RNLI Lifeboats and Lifeboat Stations: <a href="https://www.jhluxton.com/Shipping/RNLI-Lifeboats-Stations" rel="noreferrer nofollow">www.jhluxton.com/Shipping/RNLI-Lifeboats-Stations</a><br /> <br /> Kilmore Quay Lifeboat Station is the base for Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) lifeboat at Kilmore Quay in County Wexford, Ireland.<br /> <br /> The first lifeboat was stationed at the Kilmore coastguard station in 1847 but this was withdrawn in 1857.<br /> <br /> The station reopened in 1884 and moved into its present building in 2004.<br /> <br /> The first lifeboat was stationed at Kilmore on 28 July 1847. It was crewed by the local coastguard and kept in their boathouse.<br /> <br /> The boat soon fell into disrepair so an attempt was made to establish a local committee to manage it, although it proved difficult to find people who would join. The RNLI did, however, order a new lifeboat and the old one was repaired to keep it in service until the new boat was available.<br /> <br /> The RNLI's annual report in 1858 stated that a new lifeboat had been provided during 1857, however it was subsequently reported that the new boat for Kilmore was one of six destroyed in a fire at the builder's boatyard on 19 June 1858. The following year it was reported that a replacement was 'ready to be sent' but it was not included in the RNLI's list of lifeboats in 1860.<br /> <br /> There is no record of a lifeboat at Kilmore again until 1884 when the RNLI decided that it would be desirable to establish a lifeboat station because of the dangers around the Saltee Islands off Kilmore. A boathouse was built for £320 and this served until 1992 when it was demolished and a larger building constructed on the same site. The station had been renamed 'Kilmore Quay' in 1986. In 2004 a new berth was provided at the marina so that the lifeboat could be kept afloat.<br /> <br /> The RNLI aims to reach any vessel in distress up to 50 nmi (93 km) from the coast within 2 hours of launching. The Tamar-class lifeboat at Kilmore Quay has a range of 250 nmi (460 km) and top speed of 50 kn (93 km/h).<br /> <br /> Adjacent stations with all-weather lifeboats are Dunmore East to the west, Rosslare Harbour to the north, and St Davids to the east. There is also an inshore lifeboat at Fethard between Kilmore Quay and Dunmore East.<br /> <br /> The first lifeboat to be stationed at Kilmore was a small, buoyant boat. When the station was reopened in 1884 it was provided with a larger boat of the then-standard self-righting design. These were 'pulling and sailing' lifeboats that were usually rowed with oars but could use sails when conditions allowed. The station's first motor lifeboat arrived in 1937. This was a single-engined design but later boats were equipped with two.<br /> <br /> Modern, fast lifeboats have been stationed here since 1992. The first was kept in the boathouse and launched on a carriage, but since 2004 the lifeboat has been kept afloat in the marina.<br /> <br /> The current lifeboat is Tamar-class Killarney which has been on station since 2010.
