Scale: Unknown. A full hull model of a catamaran lifeboat made entirely in wood and painted. The hull and top faces of the gunwales are painted white, the upperworks, deck and thwarts are black, inboard bulwarks are red and there is a black stripe running the length of the hull. The hull shape is double-ended, and the twin hulls have a large gap between them which is straight-sided. The gunwales are raised on stanchions and three thwarts are affixed to the bottom faces of the gunwales. The thwarts all have circular apertures, possibly for the provision of masts. Other features include a pair or hawse holes.
