The Cannon Kit is a craftable Structure exclusive to Don't Starve Together introduced in The Curse of Moon Quay update. Its crafting recipe can be obtained from the Queen of Moon Quay in exchange for Bananas if the player does not have any Accursed Trinkets. Once obtained the recipe can be found in the Sailing Filter.

The Cannon Kit can be deployed on a Boat. It can be loaded with Cannonballs and be fired at a target in front of it. The Cannon's range of attack depends on the player's position, it will aim towards the opposite direction from where the player is standing which allows the Cannon to fire in any direction.

Cannons can be placed on a Boat or on the ground. Boats get pushed back in the opposite direction of a shot. On Moon Quay, Cannons can be found on Docks inhabited by Powder Monkeys, who use them as weapons and shoot at any approaching player Boats.
