KNRM "Koningin Juliana" ["Queen Juliana"] entered service at Hoek van Holland [Hook of Holland] in 1963. Many of her missions were medical evacuations of sick and injured sailors. She would have been replaced by a "fast lifeboat" in the late 1980 / early 1990s.
The lifeboat station at Hook of Holland had a gold medal service in 1985, that was performed by the lifeboat "President Jan Lels"

I was at Rotterdam in 2008 with my [now late] father, and talked myself aboard her for a look around.
