About time someone built one of these, and better still a great diorama setting, Sunday just gone, we went for a family trip to Southend-on-Sea and there at the end of the longest pleasure pier the rescue boat centre, haven't been there for years, a big change all round, now they have dingy and believe it or not a small hover craft, the large rescue boat I remember as a kid sadly gone. Great looking diorama.

Great looking dio. I really like how the wood sides of the base mimic the waves of the ocean. That ocean is also some of the best work I've seen, very realistic looking.

A wonderful replication of the original, even down to the dark seas of the region.
