Here is a link to a news article complete with Photographs of PT 658 written last may but published in the June issue of the magazine "Oregon Sentinal" (the magazine for the Oregon National Guard) It is pretty well written and in color. Hopefully you can get a feel for the boats current condition from the article. Jerry.
