I am very pleased to make these further photographs of the Northern Lighthouse Board vessels available, and thank www.oldleither.com for their help. The photos are courtesy of all the crew of the vessels.
For more information about these vessels and others, please have a look at the main page about the lighthouse vessels.
The Northern Lighthouse Board re-used names, sometimes many times, and the numbers shown in brackets after the vessels’ names on this page are for reference – they were not carried on the vessels as there was only one vessel of a given name at any one time.
