Just picking up construction of my 1/48 "Westward Ho" after delay due to family illness. A query about lifeboats: info I have from Andrew Collier suggests that the boats were 22ft long, but looking at the picture on P 97 of Chris Collard's book "P&A Campbell pleasure steamers 1887-1945" they look to be quite a bit shorter, unless this is a perspective effect. Has anyone any info?
Any ideas on lifeboat construction would be welcome; I aim to make everything myself.
