FF's boat
Man those things could take a beating. Single engine boat with a young coxian, throw it up against the landing a unload. Not to mention stopping in the middle of the night and putting one over the side and filling it with material and sending it off into the night to meet a submarine (I guess that's where they went because they came back empty). Man some of the things we expect our young sailors and military people to do we had better give them the best. I think I read an article in PMM about Willard Marine on the West Coast building them and they used the best of everything in the hulls and running gear.
