If you guys are looking for a great read, take a look at my fathers book about the pt boats and their tenders. I'm very proud of him for making this and i hope it sheds great light on how the boats helped us in WW2. :D

Now That is my idea of a boat to take out on the Gulf to cruise and fish, not too far out, 1000 yards is far enough for me, further than that, i'd probably drown. Always loved a PT, man what a craft!
