This slipway is immediately opposite the old lifeboat station which has been replaced by a newer one a little further north-east. Out on the sands are two RNLI launch and recovery vehicles which will handle the new Shannon class lifeboat which was due to be delivered the following day. They make a deafening roar even at this distance.
