The St Anne's Lifeboat will always be remembered for this country's worst ever life boat tragedy when both the St Anne's and Southport lifeboats and their crews were lost trying to rescue the crew of the Mexico which was in difficulty in heavy seas. The Lytham Lifeboat crew successfully rescued the Mexico's crew.
