H-007 Samburgh
Due to the nature of Morecambe Bay with its infamous shifting sands the Royal National Lifeboat Institution has a hovercraft stationed in the town as well as a traditional lifeboat. The usual vessel is H-002 'The Hurley Flyer', but when that vessel is out of action one of the relief fleet is drafted in as cover and on March 6th, 2022 H-007 'Samburgh' was providing cover when pictured heading from the Hest Bank area back to Morecambe.
