A little about this puzzle

Two adults steady a stationary Christmas lantern boat inside a shoreside boat shed. A boatbuilder holds the hull beside its roller cradle while an assistant controls a line attached to the bow eye. Rollers and padded side stops support the hull. A star, a string of bulbs and a wreath decorate the boat, with the shore visible through the open shed. A foreground workbench, a low side table and a rear tool cabinet organize the search area. The 12 targets are rope coil, wooden wedge, wrench, spirit level, tow strap, lifebuoy, wooden paddle, flashlight, tool pouch, oil can, cleaning cloth, clipboard. Their key appears in two rows of six. The sturdy outlines and diagonal view follow an adventure-comic style. The design brief is for ages 13–17 at L4 difficulty; no child play test or physical print test is claimed.
