With Dick's permission, I'm letting the membership know that I just set up a Facebook Group and am inviting you to join. Here's the Group Description:

This group is for serious students of the small naval combatants of the world. For this group, small naval combatants refers to motor-driven vessels in the roughly 45'-175' range such as MAS, MTB, MGB, MASB, AVR/ARB, SC, PC, PBR, PCF, Schnellboot, etc. Threads on European and Asian types are encouraged.

The primary focus is the technical aspects of small combatant craft from the turn of the 20th Century to the present. Contributors are expected to act in a collegial manner and provide credible sources for their submissions. No discussions of PT 109 will be entertained. In general, threads involving models will not be entertained; there are other fine sites for this. .


FAIR WARNING!! This is not a group for the faint of heart. As most of you know, I'm a pain in the nether portions when it comes to accuracy and documentation, so I'm likely to be a tyrant and quick on the delete button if sketchy stuff starts showing up in submissions So, welcome all, but be prepared...

Oh, he sails thorough the seas with the greatest of ease.
That daring young Ross in his ELCO PTs.
He scatters his fish all over the seas...
Oh, the forums ain't safe anymore.
