The sound you have just heard are of the maroons and was the traditional method of mustering the Lifeboat crew, in days gone by when the Lifeboat was launched by horses, they were released from their duties and also headed for the lifeboat station, over the years technology and health and safety issues have nearly resigned this method of calling the crew to history.

Although health and safety is top priority it has been noticed that the local community are not aware when their Lifeboat has been called.

 


After 110 years, Hoylake's RNLI Lifeboat Station has moved to a new location, 500 metres East of the old station.

The position is N53 23 56 W003 10 38, Postcode CH47 3AL
