A quick service for the Penlee all-weather lifeboat ‘Ivan Ellen’ and crew this evening. A 38ft French yacht with two persons onboard, which left Falmouth at 4.00am this morning, required assistance near the Low Lee Buoy. It’s engine had failed and with very little wind was struggling to make headway. The ‘Ivan Ellen’ lifeboat launched at 5.30pm and was quickly on scene. The yacht was rafted alongside and towed to a pontoon berth in Newlyn Harbour. Crew - Patch, Tony Rendle, Ben Keogh, James Robe

Many of you have asked why the Penlee Lifeboat has such a close connection and friendship with Mousehole AFC - over the years many of our lifeboat crew have donned the Mousehole strip and proudly played for the ‘Seagulls’. Owen Ladner, goal keeper, was a long serving crewman on the W & S and Solomon Browne lifeboats in the 50’s & 60’s Leslie ‘Nabo’ Nicholls, his close friend & crew mate, the late Nigel ‘Brocky’ Brockman, and Nimrod ‘Nim’ Bawden, who played in goal, served together for many years

On 19 December 1981 the Penlee lifeboat launched to aid the troubled Union Star, in one of our most challenging rescues ever attempted. Despite a successful initial rescue, the crew were all lost alongside passengers of the Union Star. 16 people died, the 8 crew members of the Solomon Browne and 8 people from the Union Star. To mark the 40th anniversary of the disaster, we have opened an online Book of Remembrance, you are invited to add your message. The Book is a place to commemorate the coura

Earlier this afternoon the all-weather lifeboat ‘Ivan Ellen’ went to the assistance of a local fishing vessel which had caught fire off Porthcurno.

The two male casualties had abandoned their vessel to a life raft and were picked up by the crew of the Ivan Ellen lifeboat - both were safe and well. They were swiftly returned to very relieved awaiting family members in Newlyn. The Ivan Ellen was immediately refuelled and has
