Alternative Lifeboat Colour Scheme

What we know about this image :

A prototype RNLI Arun-class Lifeboat entering Hartlepool Dock Channel, painted in ‘flourescent’ Yellow, as opposed to the normal lifeboat 'Dayglow Orange’. The boat was visiting Lifeboats Stations around the British Isles for crew members to appraise the new colour scheme. Following the survey, the new colour was rejected.
