Scale: 1:12. Crutch from a model of a Tristan Da Cunha longboat which has been made largely of wood together with canvas and cotton fittings. The hull, which is double ended, consists of a wooden frame over which has been fitted a canvas skin which is stitched and pinned and painted a white colour. The stempost, keel, and sternpost, together with a strake along the rabbit line are made of wood and painted a white colour with the upper wale and capping painted a sky blue. There is a thin red line painted horizontally underneath the gunwale running from bow to stern together with the thwart stringer and mast gangboard and step, also painted red. Internally it is fitted with seven wooden thwarts and a small foredeck, together with a raised deck at the stern. The wooden hull consists of sixteen frames running athwartships, all of which are held in place by a series of upper stringers, painted red, blue, and white, and ten floors painted white. Other fittings include a wooden rudder and tiller (detached), a single mast set with a lug sail, the spars of which are made of natural varnished wood, and a single triangular jib or head sail. There are three pairs of wooden oars made in natural wood and varnished which are worked through three pairs of metal U-shaped rollards mounted single banked along the gunwale.
