The lifeboat that isn't
This is the former lifeboat 'Duke of Kent' a Rother class RNLI lifeboat built by William Osborne of Littlehampton. It saw service at Eastbourne from 1979 to 1993. After a further year at Eastbourne as a relief boat, she was sold by the RNLI and became a Survey Vessel operating out of Tayport. A lifeboat was stationed at Tayport in 1837, but after the RNLI took over in 1861 activity became centred on the other side of the Firth of Tay at Broughty Ferry, one of the busiest lifeboat stations in Scotland.

Tayport harbour
An alternative name shown on road signs for Tayport is 'Ferryport-on-Craig'. Since a ferry ran for years between here and Broughty Ferry on the north of the Firth of Tay, that seems a very logical name. But its derivation is more complex. Early 13th century documents show it as 'Partan Craig' (Gaelic for 'Crab Rock') which had been corrupted by English usage into Portincragge by 1415 and again into Port-in-Craige by the end of that century.
