From the upper steering position, to the engine room and jet space below deck, take a look around the RNLI’s new Shannon class of lifeboat, the most agile and manoeuvrable all-weather lifeboat in the fleet using your Google Cardboard headset.

Explore every space in the lifeboat in 360 photo-spheres allowing you to see all the detail as though you’re there in person!

To see the Shannon in action in 360 degree video, visit our YouTube channel and look for the 360 video playlist.
