Video of sinking: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xE9apFriYEGx2bwUoxXWxupXZn7fo22P/view?usp=sharing This model is a ship designed to sink front-first. Its unique bulkhead design allows each compartment to slowly fill up and spill over into the next compartment, allowing this ship to sink slowly and realistically. There is also a floating, non-sinking model Assembly Instructions (Sinking Model) Glue the hull segments togetherGlue the deck segments togetherAllow the glue to curePlace a piece of tape on the outside hole in the front of the hullPlace the hull in the pool or bathtubAdd ballast (lead weights, BBs, or rocks) until the boat sits level in the water, and the water line is where the red transitions into black.Secure the ballast with hot glueGlue the deck onto the hullPlace the lifeboats in their cradles (they will float off when the boat is sinking)You may also secure the lifeboats in if you wishAfter all the glue cures, place the boat in the water, and watch as it slowly sinks!
