            This is the 1:35 Scale Titanic's Lifeboat from Latina

    The Sinking of the RMS Titanic, a British Ship owned by the White Star
     Line in April 1912, on her maiden voyage to New York was memorably worse
     for the shortage of lifeboats, RMS Titanic sailed to it's fate with only
     20, enough for only half the passengers. When launched from the sinking
             ship into the freezing seas the lifeboats were not full,
                      worsening the tragedy still further.

                Latina rates the difficulty level at one anchor,
                       recommended for beginning modelers.

            plywood and boxwood
          Brass hardware such as eyebolts, deck lights, rings, and more
          Three colors of thread, brown and raw (pale green) for different
            rigging applications

          Height:  55mm (2.16")
          Beam:    95mm (3.74")

COMMENTS: Painting is not required, but a good choice for enamel model paint in
            a large variety of colors would be the Humbrol line found under
            vendor prefix ARXR.
          Even though the manufacturer rates this kit as easy to build, this
            model contains many pieces and much finish work is required.
            Previous modeling experience is helpful.
