R R LOW E R ING BOATS AT SEA (lomniander Easton of the navy of Groat Rrltain lias Invented an interest lug device for the lowering of boats at sea with the minimum of danger to passengers, w hh li was submitted to the board of trade. Commander Eas ton had devoted considerable attention to the subject and has a practical knowledge of boat unrk at sea. His system is the provision of lifts donn the side of the ship, so designed that the heats rest on a platform, which slides down guide rails fixed to the ship's sides The boats themselves swing on gimbals, so that no matter at what angle the ship may swing the boats remain upright ami there is no danger of their being overturned while descending or of being dashed against the sides of the vessel.
