The James Stevens lifeboats were a series of twenty lifeboats which were purchased by the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) using a £50,000 legacy received in 1894 from the estate of Mr James Stevens, of The Reform Club, Birmingham, UK, an Edgbaston property developer,[1] which was provided for this purpose.[2] This donation provided more boats than any other donation received by the RNLI.[1] (Mrs Sue Denny, Spokeswoman for The RNLI).

Two of the lifeboats, No. 10 and No. 14, are still seaworthy - after suffering extensive storm damage in Dec-2015[3], it is believed that No.10 is no longer seaworthy.
