RNLB Lloyds II (ON 986) was an Oakley-class lifeboat of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI)[1] stationed at Sheringham in the English county of Norfolk[2] from 8 October 1990 until April 1992, when she was replaced by the Atlantic 75 second generation Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB) Manchester Unity of Oddfellows in April 1992.

[3] The system worked by the lifeboat taking on one and half tons of sea water at launching into a tank built into the base of the hull.

If the lifeboat then reached a crucial point of capsize the ballast water would transfer through valves to a righting tank built into the port side.

She was fitted with twin Perkins P4M, 43 brake horsepower (32 kW) diesel engine, which moved her over the water at 8 knots (15 km/h; 9.2 mph).

[1] The Ilfracombe RNLI station had been allocated a new Mersey class lifeboat called Spirit of Derbyshire in July 1990.

[5] Lloyds II was sent to Sheringham temporarily until the RNLI changed the type of lifeboat coverage it required in this part of North Norfolk.

Lloyds II took the vessel in tow, relieving the Yarmouth and Gorleston inshore lifeboat Joseph B.

[1] Her launch carriage was sent to be with Sheringham's previous Oakley The Manchester Unity of Oddfellows for both to be preserved for posterity.
