A nice color shot of a 78' Higgins from the LIFE magazine archives -- don't know which boat, or where she was operating. These were posted on the Fine Scale Modeler magazine's Forum section of their monthly newsletter a few weeks ago.

Thought the Higgins vets and fans would appreciate these.

Thanks for posting them, Dick.

Somebody messed with the color balance in those photos. I have correct copies where that neutral gray color shows as the Navy Blue 5-N it is supposed to be. Those boats are in Measure 21.
