3D Challenge #026 - Lifeboat


Note: Please read the guidelines for participating in the challenge. The purpose of the challenge is to have fun and bring SketchUp users together and help each other learn and get better at using our favorite 3d modeling program. We will remove comments that are objectionable or offensive.

This week's challenge:

Lifeboat

A lifeboat is a small craft usually carried on ships to provide a means of emergency evacuation in the event of a disaster aboard the ship. Beside ships they can also be found at oilrigs and in helicopters or airplanes which could crash into the sea. Lifeboats can be divided into two main categories; lifeboats with a rigid hull or inflatable lifeboats (often called liferafts). For this challenge all lifeboats are allowed, including liferafts and rescueboats. Your model could be an existing boat or an imaginary design of your own. Typical properties of lifeboats are a low center-of-gravity point, a bright orange color and protection to the elements (sun, wind, water).

Good luck ALL!
