Sold
Very nicely detailed larger-scale kit of the beautiful yacht-like vessel. The kit has never been started. Internal factory sealed bag or inventoried 100% complete including instructions.

The Savannah was the world's only nuclear powered cargo ship, and it also had plenty of dedicated space for passengers, including beautiful staterooms, pools and dining areas. I was fortunate enough to tour the ship when she was at Patriots Point, SC. Although the decay was significant, it was not hard to see how incredible this ship was.
