Aug. 08, 1953 - Oslo To Wapping In An Aluminium Open Boat. Four men who have crossed the North Sea like shipwrecked mariners, to test a new type of aluminum lifeboat, arrived at Wapping. On their trip from Norway, which has taken ten days, they have existed on biscuits, tinned meat and water. Norfly, the ½-ton open lifeboat, is the first foreign lifeboat to be approved by the Transport Ministry for British vessels. It will be on show at the Marine and Engineering Exhibition in London. Skipper of the boat was 47-year-old Lieut. Leif Larsen, Royal Norwegian Navy, whose wartime exploits in command of the” Shotland Bus” made him famous. He made 52 trips bringing refugees from occupied Norway to Britain and returning with military supplies for his beleaguered compatriots. Keystone Photo Shows: - View of the lifeboat seen arriving at Wapping.
