Freefall Lifeboat

Captain Phillips

Get ready to experience the thrill of a lifetime at the Volo Museum! Imagine standing face to face with the actual lifeboat that Tom Hanks bravely fought for survival in during the filming of the blockbuster hit, Captain Phillips. This isn't just any ordinary prop - this is the real deal!

Look inside this historic freefall lifeboat and feel the adrenaline pumping as you relive the intense scenes from the movie. You'll be amazed to learn that the majority of the film was actually shot inside this small vessel, not in a fancy studio with green screens.

But that's not all - this lifeboat has an incredible story behind it. The movie Captain Phillips was based on a true story, the piracy takeover of the Maersk Alabama by Somali pirates in 2009. The boat on display is in the exact same condition as when it left the set - complete with a broken out driver's window, bullet holes, and fake blood spatter.

This is your chance to see a piece of history and feel like you're a part of the action. Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to witness the real-life struggles of survival on the high seas. Come to the Volo Museum and experience the heart-pounding adventure of the Captain Phillips lifeboat!
