I'm not into any boating and I didn't realize what this was when I got it. I'm not sure if it's completely a workable piece, but it looks nice.

I did not pay attention to the fine print. Product is small. More of a desk item than anything useful. But unique none the less. Would be nicer if it came with a display stand.
