### Cruise Ship Rating Survey Analysis

A travel magazine conducts an annual survey where readers rate their favorite cruise ships. These ratings are done on a 10-point scale, with higher values indicating better service quality. 

- **Sample of Smaller Ships**: 
  - **Number of Ships**: 55
  - **Average Rating**: 8.75
  - **Standard Deviation**: 0.86

- **Sample of Larger Ships**: 
  - **Number of Ships**: 30
  - **Average Rating**: 8.91
  - **Standard Deviation**: 0.52

The objective is to determine the 99.9% confidence interval of the difference between the population mean ratings for smaller ships and the population mean ratings for larger ships. 

**Important Note**: The order of subtraction matters when calculating the difference between population mean ratings. Follow the provided order in the prompt carefully.

**Confidence Interval to be provided with values rounded to 2 decimal places.**

\[ \text{Confidence Interval} = \boxed{} \pm \boxed{} \]
