Description
The Royal Jubilee 38′ Lifeboat, custom-built by William Osborne Ltd. for the RNLI in England, exemplifies seaworthiness and durability. Operated out of Margate, Britain, she was designed to endure extreme conditions, featuring a 360-degree self-righting capability, unsinkable flotation chambers, and robust construction to withstand impacts during lifesaving missions in heavy seas.
With engines capable of running inverted, she excelled in reliability and performance, often launching into cresting shore breaks during severe storms. Decommissioned in 1993 and transported to the USA in 2007, this vessel remains a symbol of exceptional craftsmanship and maritime engineering.
