Potential 1/48 Higgins PT kit

The PT boats seemed to be customed modified to fit specific taskings when being manufactured, as shown by the multiple variations.

I know as they became more respected by Navy Brass, they got more use and became special ops platforms.

I was surprised to hear some PTs were repurposed for use in major inland waterways and lakes in parts of the world.
 
A bit further along on the potential kit. The hull is planked and filled and I've adjusted the laser drawings a bit. The deck you are seeing is the subdeck. It will be covered with a 1/32" ply deck that has the positions of the primary components (deck house, engine room hatch, etc,.) lasered onto it.
