Is the other one made of Lead?

If so, it brought back memories of long ago when a friend and his brother had many lead molds which they then poured molten lead into to have all sorts of little things. The size, if I remember correctly, was about the size of your unmarked boat.

Yes, it apprears to be solid lead
