Description

RMS Aquitania was a British ocean liner of the Cunard Line in service from 1914 to 1950. She was launched on 21 April 1913 and sailed on her maiden voyage from Liverpool to New York on 30 May 1914. Aquitania was the third in Cunard Line's grand trio of express liners, preceded by RMS Mauretania and RMS Lusitania, and was the last surviving four-funnelled ocean liner. Shortly after Aquitania entered service, World War I broke out, during which she was first converted into an auxiliary cruiser before being used as a troop transport and a hospital ship, notably as part of the Dardanelles Campaign. Aquitania was retired from service in 1949 and was sold scrapping the following year. Having served as a passenger ship for 36 years, Aquitania ended her career as the longest serving Cunard vessel, a record which stood for six years until overtaken by RMS Scythia's service record of 37 years. In 2004 Aquitania's service record was pushed into third place when Queen Elizabeth 2 became the longest serving Cunard vessel.(Description from Wikipedia) At THEROLLER3D, we see the value in our shared history and will always strive to find new and creative ways to bring that history back to life in our products. There is a difference between models and toys. These are high quality artisan models not toys. They will hold up to light play but should not be hit or banged around as there are little pieces that can break off. We try our best to make these models strong but because they are 3d printed models, they will always be weak in some of the areas with smaller pieces. They will float in water but not straight. Please do not buy this model if all you are looking for is a toy boat to float in the tub. Thank you - Andy
