You need to scale the real dimensions until they correspond to the model. If the real boat is 25 feet long then that's 25 x 12 inches which equals 300 inches. Your model is 22 inches long, so every "real" dimension from the table needs to be multiplied by a fraction of 22/300 to get the model's corresponding dimension.
