Looks like an ex RNLI lifeboat - cannot remember the class name. They were around 18' and twin inboards.

same builder I think - but the e-bay boat is smaller and probably closer to the lifeboat design. Then chine line and foredeck looks like the lifeboat hull too.

A Westcraft Watson, designed by G L Watson and a 18' was designed for the RNLI, built in the same "yard" as Tremletts...
15' and up to 30' I think...
