Boat, very orange, in Norwich city centre

A week ago I was surprised to see this boat outside The Forum in Norwich. There was almost no information about it, it was just sitting there on its trailer.


The banner at least tells you it is from Survival Systems International. The California-based company supplies "lifeboat survival capsules". It has a service base in the UK, at Great Yarmouth, just 20 miles away.


They're used by (or supplied to) the offshore drilling industry.


Orange, isn't it?

How long before it ends up on a canal somewhere, like these I saw last year in London? (Orange one on the Paddington Branch; green one on the Lee)
