Default The coolest thing to see on the water is this!!!

On Saturday we were just floating around hanging out swimming and we looked up and saw this!!!! A PT 728, I gotta tell ya this thing blew me away!!! I'm not into old war movies but I'm gonna watch a few to learn more about this thing. The news said it was heading towards Port Clinton for its final resting place at a museum. It was just fully restored man it was pushing some water!!


SO COOL

If I remember correctly there are a number of videos on youtube with this vessel and there is one about a scaled cruiser and a few others.

You are absolutely correct, they are certainly cool looking on the water!

500GPH at 41knots... 8.3 Gallons PER MINUTE. Cool website, kudos to people passionate enough to take a project like this on.
