Due to the shallow sandy nature, of the Irish sea along the Lancashire coast, especially around the river Ribble at Lytham, the Royal national lifeboat institution have had to adapt. When the tide is out here, the water can be two miles out from the boathouse where the life boat is held. This tractor and tracked trailer, can transport the lifeboat to a launching position in minutes, instead of hours, for mariners in distress.
