| 説明 | Lifeboat "Lucy Lavers"RNLB Lucy Lavers was an RNLI lifeboat which was on No. 2 station at Aldeburgh from 1940 until 1959 when she was placed in the reserve fleet until 1968 when she was retired.The Lucy Lavers arrived in Aldeburgh in 1940 and was almost immediately commandeered, along with Aldeburgh's No:1 station lifeboat RNLB Abdy Beauclerk by the Royal Navy. She was summoned to Dover and arrived at the port on 31 May. She was needed, along with 17 other RNLI lifeboats, to help in the Dunkirk evacuation. They arrived just east of Dunkirk harbour where they began the evacuation. Lucy Lavers along with the other lifeboats had to remain at Dunkirk until ordered to return home. She remained there, ferrying the evacuees out to larger ships until late on the evening of 4 June. The Lucy Lavers served at Aldeburgh for 19 years, during which she and her crew undertook 30 operations which saved 7 lives. During her service in the RNLI’s reserve fleet at Wells-next-the-Sea, Sheringham, and Rhyl, she undertook a further 52 missions, saving 37 lives. Lucy Lavers underwent full restoration work at Stiffkey, Norfolk from 2013. The restoration was completed in time for the lifeboat to return to Dunkirk under her own steam to join the 75th anniversary celebrations of Dunkirk evacuation in May 2015. She is moored at Wells-next-the-Sea in Norfolk and is currently used for boat trips out of the harbour. |
