Next time the Royal Marines move/rescue cars in Cornwall they might find it
quicker if they use more than two planks. It's good entertainment doing it with
only two planks on programmes like Top Gear, but time consuming and a bit silly
in the real world.

Perhaps that's all they had available. Military funding cuts etc....!

Possibly and no plans to replace the road because of national budget cuts?

More & longer planks would certainly be cheaper! A sort of mini King
Harry ferry, perhaps!
