While going through images, I noticed that some screen grabs from the movie Devil Boats show an area seldom seen in photos. They highlight some minor cabin and deck details:

Jeff,
Thanks for the clarification on the photos. Have you come across any drawings or detail of the flag locker?

You can see all the mounting hardware and wiring for the radar. Interesting photos! Looks like more scratch building in my future!

You're welcome David, sorry but no flag locker drawing yet besides what's seen on general arrangement drawings.

They might have removed the radar because of the public nature of the film.

I forgot to mention, I don't have drawing proof of the shimmed deck on PT 103-138. PT 139 and on have "deck framing details" drawings that show it.

I noticed that even though the boat is the 315, she still shows open framing on the inboard side of the starboard cockpit bulkhead...
