Al, the first two of your pics appear to be access to the aft stowage compartment. The first has a watertight door directly in front of the hatch, the only place on the boat. The second has the fuel compartment vent outlet showing as well as the deck cut for aft gas tank hatch, there are no other hatches with vents that close. The second is obviously from the 308 based on the deck and other pictures, do you know what boat the first is from?
Dick, thanks for the drawings, what boats are the 1st and 3rd drawings from?
By the way everyone, thanks so much for the info. We are trying to be as authentic as possible and every bit of information is a great help.

Bob;
Yes those are my photos I took in 1988 and they are from PT 308. The first photo you ask about I believe is also 308, the rear deck area was rotted more than the rest, I seem to remember Mr. Timmons layed down some plywood so people could move around a little safer. Actually I think he did it more for himself, the real deck rot started after this hatch and before the 40mm mount location all the way to the stern.
Contact me off line please.
Take care,
TED

Thanks everyone for the input. I have to work (for money) tommorrow, but I am going to stop by the boat. Will take some pictures, not to good at the computer stuff, will upload some pics as time (patience) allows. Working on the aft stowage compartment hatch coaming, wanted to get it right. Thanks again
