A group from Mile Oak Football Club made the visit to Kingston Beach on Saturday for a tour of the boathouse and was greeted by RNLI volunteers Julie and Markus.
Karen Hilton, club welfare officer, said: "There was a lot of excitement when they learned they would see the launch of the Tamar class relief boat, Peter and Lesley-Jane Nicholson, covering for Shoreham's RNLB The Enid Collett, which had been away to Falmouth but was due back that afternoon.
