    Exclamation The only operational WW2 PT Boat left

    There's also this one:

    It was pretty neat when they had it at the marina next to mine. Took the golf cart over and checked it out. It was cool watching them take it out for rides too.
    Hard work pays off in the future.

    Re: The only operational WW2 PT Boat left

    I've probably posted this before, but Elco made a film about how they built them. It's in three parts:

    https://youtu.be/MN47z3n52-c

    Love the last one where they run them up into the sound and test the guns.
