Basil William Reid Hall (31 October 1865 – 10 August 1942) was a British Labour Party activist and lifeboat sailor. Born in Sunderland, Hall was educated at Versailles, and at Twyford School in Winchester. He joined the Royal Navy in 1878, training on HMS Britannia. He reached the rank of captain, but left in 1894 to join the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI), becoming an inspector of lifeboats, and also lecturing in support of the organisation. In 1914, he led the rescue operation of SS Rohilla, for which he received the Silver Medal of the RNLI.
