Throwback Thursday has arrived once again! It's hard to imagine that the initial photo was captured right after our new pavement was laid in 2015. The space looked so empty back then, but just take a look at how far we've come now!

RLNI FACT: In 1934 Ramsgate town celebrated the 50th. anniversary of its incorporation and was then allowed to add ‘supporters’ to their coat of arms. A lifeboatman and a coastguard were chosen with the lifeboatman being modelled on the then coxswain Thomas Read.

RLNI FACT: Before 1926 all of Ramsgate’s lifeboats were ‘pulling and sailing’, powered by wind and rowing. They were often towed to and from rescues by steam tugs which were based in the harbour from the 1840s. The 2 tugs that became the most famous were named “Aid” and “Vulcan”.
