On September 1st, 2024, Michelle, our dedicated property manager at Ramsgaterooms.co.uk, had the privilege of attending an inspiring event in Ramsgate along side her partner Joe Easton works for PLA – Estuary Services. The occasion? A grand naming ceremony graced by none other than HRH The Princess Royal. The highlight of the day was the official christening of the Estuary Elise, a state-of-the-art pilot boat that has now joined Estuary Service Limited’s impressive fleet of six vessels.
The Estuary Elise, an ORC171, stands as a testament to modern maritime innovation. Built by Norfolk-based family boat builders, Goodchild Marine Services Ltd., this vessel is a perfect blend of cutting-edge technology and thoughtful design. Its modern, fuel-efficient hull form is not only a step forward in environmental sustainability but also enhances service resilience and passenger comfort. These features ensure that the Estuary Elise will be a valuable asset in serving ESL’s customers with greater efficiency and reliability.
The vessel’s design doesn’t stop at functionality. It also includes additional accommodation and expanded capacity, showcasing a commitment to meeting the evolving needs of its users. This attention to detail highlights the expertise and forward-thinking approach of Goodchild Marine Services Ltd.
The event brought together a vibrant mix of maritime professionals, local dignitaries, and enthusiasts. HRH The Princess Royal’s presence added a touch of royal elegance to the day, emphasizing the significance of the Estuary Elise’s addition to the fleet. Her speech highlighted the importance of innovation in supporting the maritime industry and praised the collaborative efforts behind the vessel’s creation.
