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 its 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.
