There was once a lifeboat crew who really enjoyed their
work. Lifeboat crews are usually unpaid, and each lifeboat station is run by a
network of volunteers and supporters- but this particular crew were
particularly well supported. Local businesses would make regular contributions
for maintaining the boat, the boathouse and its tractor, and there were many
fundraising events that brought villagers and townsfolk out in force. Their
boat (the Amelia Dagsworthy) was
particularly well kitted out, with all the latest gadgets and hardware.
But there was a problem.
