It consists of a wooden hull (125.45kg), 8 each of seats (17.1kg), rudder and ropes (1.35kg) and outriggers (16.6kg). - See Appendix 1 for further details. The object has been decanted from Blythe House and is inside B1 awaiting its final storage solution. It is currently stored upside down with the majority of the pressure on the edge/rim of the boat.
