Hi Guys,

I found a dive website that has some interesting photos of, what they say are, the remains of
one or both of these PTs.

Go to : www.indopacificimages.com , then to 'Dive locations'. The write up is titled
"Tufi PT Boats ".

I'm not familiar with their story, and wanted to see what you thought.

( Sorry I don't know how to link this for you. )

Steve

Steve;
Just from the angle of the photo, and the shape of the remains, I would say that bow belongs to PT 119. Nothing in the photos looks like PT 67, maybe one of the tubes and that engine mentioned in the text is all that is left of 67.after both boats burned and sank on 17 March 1943 .
Take care,
TED
