Whoops Jeff,
should have asked if you know if they used Stainless Steal rod/tube for the hand rail on the day room or something else particularly on the early Boats of the 103 series, also what were the uprights for same made/cast from and were they hollow or maybe had a small locating pin under the base?

Ta,

D.buck

be aware this does come from a PT Boat and has been underwater for around 70 years (found a second item so I will add that too)

David,

How about a little background on the finding/acquisition of these items, please? How do you know that they are from a PT? I'm intrigued...

Dick let me introduce "Will Count the Count Day" fresh from with his last engagement on "Sesame Street" and well known for surprise appearances on "The Muppet Show". One must understand what an Honor it is to have a true celebrity in our mist!!!

I keep this up Frank will never get that boat, poo paper or not!

AAH just doing a little fishing AL, I seem to remember the last time I went fishing I caught a page or two on the Higgins Boat.

All will be revealed as and when!

Thanks for your help,
