A liquid delivery system for a marine vessel or a road vehicle is provided which comprises a flexible bladder for housing a liquid, a portable pump, a protective housing for the pump, a pump switch and conduits for connecting the bladder, the pump and a container for liquid or the vessel or vehicle. ss, wherein said excitation system includes at least first and second excitation magnets and a coil assembly and in which said coil assembly applies driving torques to sustain motion of said upper mass. 8. A scanning apparatus, comprising: an upper resonant system that includes an upper mass having a first width, an upper flexure having a second width and a reaction mass, said upper flexure joined to each of said upper mass and said reaction mass; a lower flexure having a third width that is less than said second width, said lower flexure being joined to said reaction mass; and an excitation system associated with at least one of said upper mass and said reaction mass for use in causing movement of at least said upper mass. 9. An apparatus, as claimed in claim 8, wherein: said upper mass, said reaction mass and said upper flexure constitute an integral unit. 10. An apparatus, as claimed in claim 9, wherein: said upper mass, said upper flexure, said reaction mass and said lower flexure constitute an integral unit. 11. An apparatus, as claimed in claim 8, further including: a base assembly joined to said lower flexure, wherein a first connection is provided between said reaction mass and said base assembly and a second connection is provided between said reaction mass and said upper mass and in which said first connection is less stiff than said second connection. 12. An apparatus, as claimed in claim 8, wherein: said upper flexure constitutes a spring in which energy is stored and released relative to at least said upper mass. 13. An apparatus, as claimed in claim 8, wherein: said lower flexure has a first end that is provided in a recessed portion of said reaction mass. 14. A method for scanning, comprising: providing a base assembly and an upper resonant system that includes an upper mass, an upper flexure joined to said upper mass, and a lower flexure and in which said upper resonant system includes a reaction mass joined to each of said upper flexure and said lower flexure, said lower flexure also being joined to said base assembly; associating an excitation system with said upper resonant system; and causing said upper mass to move using an electrical signal generated by said excitation system, said causing step including storing energy using said upper flexure, wherein substantially all reaction forces that occur during said causing step are isolated from said base assembly. 15. A method, as claimed in claim 14, wherein: said causing step includes releasing stored kinetic energy to at least said upper mass. 16. A method, as claimed in claim 14, wherein: said storing step includes storing kinetic energy in said upper flexure when said upper mass is moved from an undeflected position to a deflected position. 17. A method, as claimed in claim 14, wherein: said causing step includes causing said upper mass to move simultaneously in two dimensions. 18. A method, as claimed in claim 14, wherein: said causing step includes using said excitation system to overcome damping resulting from at least said upper flexure. 19. A method, as claimed in claim 14, wherein: said causing step includes using a magnetic field produced by said electrical signal to move said upper mass. 20. A method, as claimed in claim 14, wherein: said excitation system includes a coil assembly located adjacent to said upper mass. 21. A method, as claimed in claim 20, wherein: said causing step includes applying driving torques to at least one excitation magnet located in said upper mass using a magnetic field produced by said coil assembly. 22. A method, as claimed in claim 21, wherein: said driving torques are applied to said upper mass at a resonant frequency of said upper resonant system. 23. A method for scanning, comprising: providing a base assembly and an upper resonant system that includes an upper mass, an upper flexure joined to said upper mass, and a lower flexure a
