Excellent – too bad they don't offer to sell those things to people who are very wealthy. I'm certain that there would be some buyers!

I think Hammacher Schlemmer had one for a million bucks.

Yep, here we go: hammacher.com/product/12127

That is a great museum in New Orleans. Good for them to save the boat.

There are two in Massachusetts at the Battleship Cove Museum in Fall River (also the battleship Massachusetts and 1/2 dozen other ships). The PT display has a Higgins and Elco. Neither is able to take to the water.

There's one at the Nimitz Museum if Fredricksburg too.

The Hammacher Schlemmer deal is tempting, but what the hell am I supposed to do with only one?!? I need at least three to field a legal squadron, right?

SMC – are you serious? I walked right past there as I didn't have much time, but had I known that I would have made arrangements to return.

So far as I know, that's where they stuck it. My grandfather(maternalP) designed the engines, and my daddy worked on them.

There is one here in Portland Oregon too. PT-658. Robert
