A man whose horsebox was submerged by a rising tide on a causeway may have ended up there due to language difficulties, an RNLI operations manager revealed.
The Seahouses RNLI inshore lifeboat found a man taking shelter from rising tide on the Holy Island of Lindisfarne causeway off the coast of Northumberland.
He was forced to abandon his horsebox when water started seeping into the van during its journey across the causeway.
The Seahouses RNLI inshore lifeboat crew were relieved to find no horse in the back of the van
Crews responded to the report at 3.09pm - just an hour before high tide - and found the van almost completely submerged
Swimming to a nearby refuge box, built specifically for if people find themselves trapped on the causeway, he waited for help.
Operations manager Ian Clayton said there were initially reports two men has been in the van.
Language difficulties meant it took some time to verify only one person was involved.
A man was found taking shelter in this refuge box that lines the causeway to help those who accidentally try to cross during high tides
Operations manager Ian Clayton said there were initially reports two men has been in the van and language difficulties meant it took some time to verify only one person was involved.
He said: 'But the crew was very pleased when there was no horse in the vehicle.
'That would have been quite a difficult situation.'
The lifeboat had been on a training exercise at the Farne Islands when they responded to the report at 3.09pm - during high spring tide.
The man was rescued from the refuge box and taken to the mainland where he was handed in to the care of local coastguard officers.
Safe crossing times for yesterday were from 8.20am until 1.50pm and it was unsafe to cross again until 8.50pm.
A distress call was received just one hour before high tide at 4.20pm.
Mr Clayton added: 'We suspect that language problems may have contributed to this incident.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
