Amphibious vehicle, St. Michael's Mount
Allows 24-hour emergency access to the mainland. When the tide is high the causeway is cut off for land vehicles. At low tide the sea is too shallow for boats. This vehicle is poised at the top of a slipway giving access to the harbour on St. Michael's Mount.
