Burnham on Crouch Volunteer RNLI Lifeboat Crew are thrilled to have won the prestigous ‘Best Float in Show’ award for their entry in this years Burnham Carnival.

The float was based around the Floating Boathouse Appeal and featured eight ‘mini Lifeboats’ – all named after the current ‘Brandy Hole ‘Atlantic 75 and ‘Ernest & Rose Chapman II’ IB1 Lifeboats.

Designers and builders of the float, Heath Puxley and Dave Terry, both crew members, worked tirelessly for a week on the float, exchanging evenings in with the family for late nights spent painting and drilling to make it the best Lifeboat float ever!
