Boat drill on Mauretania (or Aquitania?). MS lifeboats pulled by tug; liner in background. Pan port side from stern; decks are crowded. Cut to crew rowing at fast speed; the coxswain standing and making arm motions. A few boats row past. MS man standing on ship's deck. Winning team pose with trophy; 'Aquitania' ring and crossed oars. They pass round trophy cup; drinking something from it and laughing. MS coxswain on deck holding trophy; he shakes hands with crew members as they pass. MS looking along the midsection of the liner as boats begin to be lowered from upper deck. Good shot looking down at boats lowering; sailors in the boats letting ropes out. Back to wide shot; boats now lowered into water; seagulls flying around. Title - 'Picture of lifeboat as it appears from the upper deck of a modern mammoth liner'. Another good shot; looking straight down at lifeboat floating in water; boats start to move away from ship. Title - 'Passengers embarking into lifeboats through ship's side doors'.
