Ahoy there Dick-
This sound like a lot of fun to me! I've built three of these so far and I'd love to win another!
This would be a great way to spend those long winter nights!
Put me down for number 196 !
Thanks for the raffle Dick and Merry Christmas!

Garth . . .
The drawing is an isometric of the Higgins 78' Series PT 277 - PT 288. At this point it’s just a black & white .EPS line drawing, I have yet to complete the below deck cut-away view and add color.
I have a whole series of Isometric (three-dimensional) drawings that I created from copies of ELCO, HIGGINS and HUCKINS engineering I purchased from Headquarters over the past ten years. As you might note on an earlier post I'm selling posters of one. The Elco 103 series, Eventually there will be about seven cut-away posters in all and maybe calendars for all seven - not sure yet - I'll see how they sell. Unfortunately, in the quantities I'm printing the per unit cost is very, very high, and shipping/postage is ridiculous.
Below is a better look at it . . .
All the best,
Dick Washichek . . . .

Guys.... Talk about a small world! I was just looking through a Military History catalog - It looks like they are selling this same model for about $90.
I wonder if someone made another run of the old Lindeberg line.

Good luck who ever win's this. would love to but as I live the otherside of the pond the postage costs would be silly. Have a Merry Christmas EveryOne.

Well gang . . . . it's that time.
I though more would join in - but better for those competing.
The lucky number is 27 - it has no PT Boat significance, it's just been a number that I have been doodling for a long, long time, actually since high school.
So as you can see, Will Day is the winner. Congratulation Will.
I will be shipping it out and when I have the final tab on postage, I’ll send you a note. Priority mail will probably be around: $11.60 + $2.05 ($100.00 insurance) and $0.65 (Delivery Confirmation), for a total of about $14.30. It will be off to you soon.
Thanks to all for participating,
All the best, and Happy Holidays,
Dick Washichek

Congrat Will.
BTW, there is a company that makes 1/32 scale tubes and mounts, 20mms and mounts and depth charges with racks. They look quite good and might dress up the kit. If interested, let me know and I'll find the link for you.

Thanks, guys - I'll try to do her justice and post pics (I know there is a lot of work to do making her into the right config for whatever boat I decide she should be).
Ed, if you could let me know the name of a parts supplier (other than H&R), that would be great.
Dick, thanks again.
