==History==
The ''Alfred Corry'' was constructed in 1893 by Beeching Brothers of Great Yarmouth for the RNLI at a cost of £490.7s.6d.〔
The ''Alfred Corry'' was the first example of an improved class of ''Norfolk and Suffolk''-class lifeboat called the Carvel-class.〔 The finance for the building of the boat' came from a donation left to the RNLI from the estate of Mr Alfred J Corry of Putney.〔 She was launched 41 times and saved 47 lives in her working career.〔
In 1919 the ''Alfred Corry'' was sold to Lord Albermarle and converted to a yacht, based out of Lowestoft. She was renamed ''Alba'' and an engine was added in 1921.〔 In 1949 the boat was renamed ''Thorfinn''. She was being used as a houseboat at Maldon by 1976, at which point she was bought by the great-grandson of the first coxswain and restored as a seaworthy yacht under her original name.〔 In 1991 the ''Alfred Corry'' was bought by a charitable trust and restoration to her original state begun at Lowestoft. This was complete by 1998 and the boat towed back to Southwold at that time.〔
