The Augusta lifeboat

The Augusta was Sheringham's first purpose built lifeboat, in service from 1838 until 1894.

Upcher Fishing and Rescue Boat

The Upcher fishing boat was built in 1826 with money loaned by Charlotte Upcher of Sheringham Hall. Being the largest fishing boat available, it was also used for rescues until a purpose built lifeboat took its place.
