February 28, 2006 was a day of double happiness, because two ceremonies took place to commemorate the naming and delivery of S462 and the naming of S463, sister multi-purpose cargo vessels ordered by Carisbrooke Shipping Holding Limited. They were celebrated by 40 guests, among whom were Mr. and Mrs. Willem Wester, managing director of the England-based company, and their family, having travelled all the way to our place. |
|
The eventful day started with the naming ceremony for S463. The 13,400tdw vessel was then named "AMY-C" after her sponsor Mrs. Amy Walker, mother of the company's chartering director, Mr. Ian Walker. A big cheer was raised when Mrs. Walker solemnly declared ship's name - to our delightful surprise - using Japanese language ! |
|
After taking commemorative photos with AMY-C, all the guests moved onboard S462 to attend her naming and delivery ceremony. The elder sister was christened "HELEEN-C" with a bottle of champagne by Mrs. Minka Ball, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Willem Wester. The first name "Heleen" is the name of the mother of the godmother ! |
