The Aldeburgh Lifeboat, 1929
This film shows the Aldeburgh Lifeboat, a pulling and sailing lifeboat, approaching the shore. Preparations are made to haul her up the beach. The final shot is of a capstan being turned by many volunteers. It is not certain which Lifeboat this is because there were two at that time and they were changed frequently.
