To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The bow and stern rise about 2ft. Above the main portion, forming air-tight chambers : compartments also run all round just below the gunwales. The boat has a false bottom raised above the water line, the space between this and the bottom being packed with cork ; . And through this space run several valves, being LIFEBOAT.
open tubes through which, should a sea fill the boat, her false bottom being above water line, the water is immediately discharged. Thus the boat is unsinkable and almost unc...apdzable ; and should she capdze must quickly right herself. An efficient lifeboat is held capable of carrying one adult person to every 10 cubic feet of capacity ; to which capacity she must also have l^ft. Of air-tight compartments. Lifeboats are kept up entirely by voluntary contributions. The Institution is, conse- quently, always in want of funds and support. The number of lives it saves annually may be counted in hundreds. Lifeboats are manned by volunteers ; but only experienced men are chosen unless there be a lack of numbers.
