ILB (Inshore Lifeboat)

An Inshore Lifeboat (ILB) is a specialized rescue vessel designed for quick response near coastlines, estuaries, and sheltered waters. Compact and powerful, it enables rescue teams to reach people in distress rapidly, often in conditions where larger boats might struggle. ILBs are equipped with advanced navigation and communication systems, along with lifesaving gear. Their primary role is to perform search and rescue operations, provide first aid, and assist vessels in trouble close to shore. They are vital for ensuring safety in coastal areas, offering fast, reliable emergency support to save lives in challenging environments.
