RNLB H F Bailey III (ON 777)
RNLB ''H F Bailey III'' (ON 777) is the most famous Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) lifeboat to have served from Cromer, because she was used by Coxswain Henry Blogg to perform many of his most famous lifesaving exploits. The lifeboat was on station for the ten years between 1935 and 1945.〔''Cromer Lifeboats 1804–2004'', Appendix 1 Lifeboat Summary.〕 She is now part of the National Historic Fleet〔http://nationalhistoricships.org.uk/index.cfm/event/getVessel/vref/1446〕 and has been preserved in the RNLI Henry Blogg Lifeboat Museum in Cromer.〔http://www.cromerlifeboats.org.uk/07/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=142&Itemid=46〕
From 1923 to the end of the Second World War in 1945 the Cromer station had four motor-powered lifeboats all called ''H F Bailey'' after the donor, Mr Henry Francis Bailey, a London merchant who had been born in Brockenhurst, Norfolk and had died in 1916.〔''Cromer Lifeboats 1804–2004'', page 54.〕
==Construction==
''H F Bailey'' was built at the yard of Groves and Guttridge Ltd on the Isle of Wight. Her hull is constructed using double diagonal planking of Honduras mahogany on a framework of teak ribs and beams, with the stem and stern posts and her keel of English oak. The stern and stem posts are grown to the required shape to give the lifeboat its strength and sturdiness. She is long and wide. The hull is divided into seven watertight compartments, of which the engine room is one. The hull is fitted with 142 mahogany air cases, each individually made to fit into its allocated position in the hull. Her equipment included the latest innovations of the time which included a line throwing gun and an electric searchlight.〔''Cromer Lifeboats 1804–2004'', Two New Lifeboats, page 73.〕
