clarification

Another question!
In a number of places e.g. https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/1nBt the Rescue unit
has two buildings - an admin base / radio room / lookout tower, usually
overlooking the river mouth, together with a boatshed a bit further upriver

Thanks, but are they usually found inland?
I found a few rescue / lifeboat stations along the Polish coast, but only
one mapped inland, which either doesn't exist anymore, or it's website has

Looking at some of the "inland" examples shown on OT, I wonder if they
should actually be tagged as a "lifeboat-station" at all, or whether they
would be better shown as a lifeguard base?
Examples, with some websites included:

Another version of sort of a street-vendor that I was wondering about is
mobile food vans.
They drive into a site (building site, warehouse complex etc) at morning
tea time, blow their horn, stay for 15-20 minutes, then leave & come back
at lunch time.
Are they a street vendor?
Thanks
