[StartQuote] Yes, he assumed command of the 59, just as it was being converted to, what I call a PTGB ... As a PTGB, the 59 had two 40mm Mk3 guns (fore and aft), retained the two twin .50s in the turrets, had her tubes removed and had three (to each side) single, shielded .50 where the tubes were located, and there is photographic evidence that she carried two twin (and shielded) .50s at frame 22. Go to www.ptboatworld.com to see "in action" shots of her on a training run provided by B.G. Marshall. Currently, there was only the now out-of-production 1:96 resin kit from Gulfstream of a 77 footer (first series) and there are a couple of resin 1:350 kits of the 77 footer from WHITE ENSIGN MODELS and a Russian company - that I forgot the name of.
