PT-10 HELM
http://www.ptboatforum.com/cgi-bin/MB2/netboardr.cgi?cid=101&fid=102&tid=2101
I was hoping someone might have a couple of good shots of PT-10's Helm area. Of all the darn photos I have of that boat being built at Elco, I have limited shots of the helm area. Al Ross has provided me a few photos, but really nothing showing the boat when she was dropped into the basin. I have a few nice shots of the helm area for PV-70, but I'm pretty sure Elco made changes when PT-10 was constructed. If anyone has any shots that would help, give me a shout...........

Frank;
I believe there is a photo of PT 10's cockpit helm area in Early Elco PT Boats, History of 70' and 77' Elcos by Bob Ferrell & Al Ross
take care,
TED

Will and Ted. I have several copies of that early book, but the photo you are refering to does not really show enough of the Helm area, although it does help.
