Liverpool-class P&S lifeboat
Liverpool-class Pulling & Sailing lifeboats / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The early Liverpool-class lifeboats used by the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) were 'Pulling and Sailing' types (P&S) (i.e. powered by oars and sails) and should not be confused with the later one or two engined Liverpool-class motorised lifeboats.
