This model is based on the Shannon Class lifeboat RNLI 13-01, operated by the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI). The Shannon Class is the first RNLI lifeboat to be powered by water jets, offering high speed and excellent maneuverability. The 13-01 was one of the first of its class and has participated in numerous rescue missions along the UK coastline.
The model has been scaled to 1:72 using reference images. Approximate dimensions are: Length: 188.9 mm, Width: 63.15 mm. To maintain visual integrity and ease of printing, certain details have been intentionally simplified or adjusted from the real-life vessel.
This model is ideal as a desktop ornament or for display purposes in a collection. However, you are welcome to enhance it by adding motors and components to experiment with it as an RC boat.

First and foremost, I sincerely thank you for sharing your ion and creativity with me. Knowing that you me by choosing my models greatly increases the joy I get from doing this work.
The Nature of Model Making and Your Expectations
Thanks to 3D printing technology, we can bring our dream designs into reality, but model making, by its very nature, is a process that requires some additional steps. The ship models you purchased are part of this general rule. It's quite normal to encounter various operations during the model-making process such as cutting, gluing, sanding, and even acetone bathing. These steps are essential for bringing out the details of the model, smoothing surfaces, and assembling parts.
Recommendations for Beginners
If you are new to model making or in the process of developing your skills, I strongly recommend starting with simpler models to gain experience. This will both allow you to enjoy the process more and help you acquire the necessary skills before moving on to more complex projects. , every mastery originates from a beginning, and patience is the key to this hobby.
Print Settings and Flexibility
The .3mf files and orientation information I provide are merely recommendations. In 3D printing, you have complete freedom with parameters such as print angle, structures, and layer height. You can change these settings as you wish, according to the performance of your own printer, the type of filament you use, and the specific needs of your model. In fact, discovering the best results yourself through experimentation is one of the most enjoyable aspects of this hobby. Don't hesitate to try different settings; it's a great way to improve your print quality and reflect your personal preferences on your model.
