In their report, issued as a Blue Book the Departmental recently, Committee of the Board of Trade on Boats and Davits express' 3. preference for boste of this type,. their ideal being "an unswamp. able self-emptying boat which provides adequate shelter for pas sengera," and they urge that "the development of mechanical appli- ances for launching ships' boats, and application of motor power to their propulsion, or for towing purposes, appears to meet to a very large extent the usual objec tions which are urged against any appreciable increase in size, In support of their ideal, the. Committee have prepared a plan of a decked boat, 50 ft. long, 15 ft. broad, and 6 ft. 8 in. deep. Allowing 17 in. space boat for each person, such a would carry 250 passengers, and its weight fully laden, would be about 28 tons. "We have had submitted to us," the Com- CO.mittee add, & design for davits by which these boats could be launched, even by hand alone. We are therefore satisfied that the soheme is practicable."
