Over the sand we go!

Over the sand we go!
Sand or sea it matters not to this amphibious vehicle. It actually takes people back and forth to the Elizabeth Castle here at St Helier in Jersey. PiP. It is about a 1km journey. As the tide covers this route twice a day, the craft can act as a boat too and so still transports people but I suspect not in heavy weather.

Enjoy full size.

This is a perfect place for such vehicles, no need to watch the tide tables!

It sure is Gudrun. Since the tides are so high here I imagine they would still have to be careful.

Best Wishes. Herb

Glad you liked it.

No we did not have the time to visit the castle as this vehicle, I think took you to the entrance from where you would have to pay the rather expensive fee.

Cheers. Herb

Thanks a lot Colin. A design from WWII perhaps.

An odd looking, but practical vehicle, that obviously gets the job done. I like the way it's been decorated too. Very nicely captured Herb.

Good to see the image in the PiP again too!

Yes very practical. Not sure how it might handle in rough weather but -most of the time at least it must work well. Great that you enjoyed it.
