The launching ceremony of the newly named lifeboat Mary Joicey
The launching ceremony of the newly named lifeboat Mary Joicey.
More than 3, 000 saw Newbiggins new £ 45, 000 lifeboat officially named the Mary Joicey on Saturday.
Viscountess Ridley of Blagdon, who performed the ceremony, told the crowd lining the seafront, " we know that many lives will be saved on this coast with the boat and that the tradition started in 1851 will be carried on" After the ceremony the lifeboat was launched for the first time as the Mary Joicey.
The ninth Lifeboat and last offshore Lifeboat for Newbiggin was funded from a legacy of the late
Mrs. Mary Joicey who lived in Kensington at the time of her death but had earlier lived in Sunninghill, Berkshire. It would be named after a Newcastle donor who left £ 20, 000 towards its cost.
This particular Lifeboat was an " OakleyO class measuring 37 foot long by 11foot 6 inches wide, weighing 12ton 5cwt and built by Messrs. Herd & Mackenzie of Buckie. She was powered by two 52hp Porbeagle diesel engines which gave a top speed of 8.17 knots and carried enough fuel to travel 130 miles. With a crew of seven she was able to take on board in rough conditions up to 40 survivors. Words from http://newbigginlifeboat.co.uk/lifeboats/mary-joicey
