A year on from Southern Water awarding volunteers at Solent Rescue Independent Lifeboat a £5,000 grant towards the replacement of their outdated D-Class lifeboat, they now have a replacement IB1 vessel ready for action. Based at Lepe Country Park, this new compact boat will allow the crew to get closer to shore and access shallower water than ever before, plus operate with less crew members than their larger Arctic 24 lifeboat meaning it can be utilised more o en while still o ering the same service. And the vessel has been given its name ‘Quantum Lepe’ following a competition at Wildground Infant School – with the winner being Evelyn aged 6. Alex Willumsen, Community Partnerships and Programme Manager at Southern Water, said: “We were delighted to support this fantastic charity and the amazing life-saving service it provides in The Solent. It is very exciting now to see this lifeboat out on the water – and with such a fabulous name too!” Lee Cooper, Solent Rescue Lifeboat Operations Manager, said: “The arrival of this new boat would not have been possible without the fantastic support of the team at Southern Water. The arrival of “Quantum Lepe” gives us much greater capability to help those in distress on the Solent and it’s shores, the crew have been massively impressed, not just with the boat but also with the fantastic name provided by Evelyn at Wildground Infant School. I am sure the boat will serve us well for years to come” As is tradition a naming ceremony took place recently where Solent Rescue’s new lifeboat was o cially named ‘Quantum Lepe’. Naming ceremonies are believed to bring good fortune to new vessels. Naming ceremony for Solent Rescue’s new lifeboat ‘Quantum Lepe’
