Seeking H BEST LIgEBoAT.-A
scheme for testing the various kinds
of life boats by means Of models Of re.
duced size has been proposed by Mr..
j. Carthell. an English naval architect
who has spent twenty years in collecting
drawings and valuable information con.
corning the chief types of boats now in
use. BY his plan an ordinary self.right-
ing lifeboat. 81 feet long and n feet
wide. would be represented by a model
14i feet long and 81 feet wide, weighing
about 800 pounds. The coat of half a
dozen such models. representing the
most important and diverse form of
lifeboais, would be about 81, 900, and
$500 more would remun crate tile crews.
Mr.. Corthell concludes that In this way.
at half the cost of a single lifeboat and at
aImerely nominal risk 10 life, a series
of experiments could be conducted which
might result in improvements in future
Hteboats OF incalculable value.
