   THE KIT: In 1963 the pleasure boating industry was booming like never before.  Unfortunately business was also booming for the U. S. Coast Guard with more boating accident than ever before.  They found their answer in their new 41' Motor Utility boat.  Powered by twin 180 HP diesel engines, the boat could achieve speeds of 15 knots and in tests it towed a 100 ton 95 foot patrol boat, she proved to be a decent little tug as well.  Kit #1214 is the all wood version which features plank-on-frame balsa strip construction, with cleanly die-cut parts for construction of the superstructure.  39 cast fittings and a distinctive Coast Guard insignia decal top off this kit. 
Kit# CG005 $149.95    31" long suitable for R/C contact for info.
