I have been needing to post these pictures and forgot whether I have or not. Anyway, here are some I obtained in June 2013 when Bryant Larsens son Skip came to ride the PT658. He had some old pics of his Dad and a newspaper article. Also another PT vet Bob Hayward came by a allowed me to take photos of his picture prints of his old boats. We have Bud Larsens 2nd boat (after PT109), the PT529 with Bud at the helm. Then a newspaper article from Edina Minnesota explaining how he ended up with PT109 commissioning pennant. Then there is one of PT595 with PT 599 in the background. taken by Larsen from his boat underway on the PT529. Then are some Higgins boats PT240 and PT252, PT84, and PT245 we got these from the skipper of the PT240 Bob Hayward who came to visit from Alki Beach up near Seattle, He also donated his excellent model of PT240.
I thought I had posted these earlier but in case I did not here they are. Enjoy!
