I thought I would post a few photos of PT-9 shortly after arriving here
from England. As most of us know it was this boat that engineers at Elco would disassemble to make new blue-prints thus assembling PT's 10-19. During this trial the boat still retains her Rolls Royce Marine Engine, and as you can see her helm area does not offer much room

Always nice to see these photos of PT 9 - the boat just has that "British" look.
Maybe the boat of a proper British, Royal Yacht Squadron Commodore, wildly running the waves with his wavy hair constrained by a heavily gold braided yachtsman cap . . .

She sure was pretty. This shot of her looks like it could be of a hotrodder in his chopped pickup truck:
