Hello shipmates! I just filmed and posted (Thursday July 31st 2014) a 20 minute video on Youtube about an updated tour of the boat house and a deck tour of the PT658 in Portland. Take a few minutes to watch and let me know what you think! We are setting up to have a boatload of visitors for a catered dinner and tour from the Williamette Jetboats, the same crew that provided us with the aerial drone videos. Enjoy!
Jerry

Thanks for sharing Jerry! Enjoyed the tour and chance to see the extensive collection of artifacts and equipment. Great substitute until I get an opportunity to visit in person!

Cheers,
Andy

Nice job Jerry, it is nice to see some of the new additions to the boat. Love the new boat house, it has everything in it that you need.

Great job Jerry . . . . .

I've noticed your new mortar, would you please take a couple of photos from various angles and will update the Poster artwork to be current for the next printing. If you haven't yet printed the very big display poster for the boathouse, I'll get the new larger version updated also.

I hope you don't mind, but I added the video frame to play in the post.

Dick . . . .

That is such a great idea Jerry to have the 658 as a destination on the Jet Boat tours. Works out great for them and you guys. And they get a meal to top it all off. Now how cool is that ?? Love all the additions since we were up there and from what I see in the video, I like your new home even better than at the Coast Guard / Navy Base.

Thanks you guys! I just added some notes that explain what you are seeing to the video. Dick, Thanks for adding the clickable picture to my post! Also, yes I will send you some walk around photos of the 60mm mortar for your edits. Thanks again y'all. Jerry

That was great, Jerry, thank you. Very well done -- I feel like I really was on the 658!
