Plans have been submitted to allow lifeboat crews in Ramsey to house a new vessel.
Ramsey Lifeboat Station wants to extend its location on Queens Promenade so it can accommodate the new Shannon Class craft.
The all-weather lifeboat is being introduced to increase the RNLI's search and rescue capabilities on the Island.
The application is now pending consideration.
