New £2.2M lifeboat arrives in Ramsey

Mon, 28 Feb 2022


Ramsey's new Shannon Class lifeboat - the Ann and James Ritchie II arrived on Island yesterday.
 
The £2.2 million Shannon is the most advanced lifeboat in the RNLI fleet and will improve the crew’s ability to save lives at sea.

It is more manoeuvrable, safer, faster and has a greater range than the Mersey class lifeboat it replaces. 

This is second Shannon lifeboat to be stationed on the Isle of Man after Peel.
