I am building 562 of RON 29 in the med, she was one of the Thayer blue boats, nothing fancy. So far I've just extend the toerails back, I want to show a little of the interior through the open hatches. I have to make an airfoil for the chart house. So far I can't find a pic of the actual attachment, but Al has given me a pretty good description of it. It only has a 20mm on the bow, and a 40 on the stern (although there is a possibility it had a 40 up front too). The aft torpedoes have to be moved further back. The throttle is mounted portside. That's as much as I know so far. A thought, do you think the helmets would be a navy gray or painted the same as the boat. I want to have several laying around. I might try my hand at a few life jackets, from epoxy putty. Need a little ambiance.

Kurt:
With the Thayer blue scheme was the deck painted deck blue or deck grey?
Second question, were the horizontal surfaces such as the chart house roof and day room roof painted the same as the deck or Thayer blue?
Pictures I have seen are unclear.

OK, Ed, I'd love to see the photos...how do you view them, as I don't have an "account?"

Village photos went T.U. and wanted big bucks to make CDs of all the photos stored on their site. There was no warning. One day, no more account and no more photos unless you ponied up money to buy your own photos back.
I don't have these photos any place that can host them here. Sorry.
It looks like they may have come back to life but they do not acknowledge my account any longer. They kept the annual membership fees I had paid and my photos. Screw them.

Ed;
Why don't you just add your PT 495 photos to the PT photobucket account?
Take care,
TED
