Lagan Search and Rescue (LSAR), an independent water rescue charity based in Belfast, has taken delivery of a new rigid inflatable boat (RIB) from Ribcraft RIBs.

The eight-metre lifeboat is powered by two Yamaha F150 111kW outboard engines and is equipped with a FLIR camera.

The newbuild completed its sea trials in March of this year. It will be operated in the waters of the River Lagan in Northern Ireland.
