[StartQuote] Hi Jerry, Yes I agree with you about the effort needed to restore what is left in the cove to a working boat, I was just putting forward an answer as to what could be done if one was so inclined, but it would still be a lot easer to restore the 48 boat compared to the 59, I started this because it appeared that she had been forgotten when with a bit of effort her remains could be identified and at least she could be put back on the map, as the story going around was that she had been dredged up and disposed of. So I decided to do a bit of digging myself to see if there was anything left and look what I found! No plans to rebuild her just wanted to let the guys know she was still there and before they do get rid of her maybe one or two might like to visit her and get a few photos . Out of interest the JFK library may like a nod, sometimes that sort of enterprise can look at things a little differently to you and I, and as there is a push on to save the cove from being concreted over by those that are taking the videos maybe they would also like to know of the history of what they have there, little things like that may help them reach their goal. So Jerry haven't quite lost the plot yet, just like digging around into PT Boat History to see what I can come up with, and you know sometimes you find something, that makes it all worthwhile.
