Immortalized as the boat commanded by John F. Kennedy in the hard fought waters off Guadalcanal during WWII, the PT 109 was rammed and cut in half by a Japanese destroyer in 1942. Kennedy spent most of the next few days in the water rescuing crew members and swimming to distant islands for help. It was the beginning of a legend that would lead to the White House. Features: Four torpedo tubes, two twin .50 caliber machine guns, a 20mm cannon, a life raft, four crew figures, and three rudders, propellers and shafts are all included. Contains clear assembly instructions with a detailed synopsis of Kennedy's exciting and dangerous voyage. Includes a display stand. Paint colors needed: Copper, Black, Gray, Blue, Silver, and Flesh.
