In the 1920s, sand and silt build up in the area destroyed the local fishing industry, which had provided most of the lifeboat crew. St Annes was then deemed a 'half-time' station, only be able to launch around high-tide. It was decided to close the St Annes

Operations didn't run smoothly at St Annes in the late 1800s and into the 1900s. A swing gangway constructed on the Pier in 1895 to access the boarding boat was soon deemed too dangerous, and was removed in 1898.
