I'd like to build the Dumas 33" PT boat, but not as the 109. Are there fittings available out there to convert it to a later model?

I really wanted to do the 48" version, but it's not available and the PT boat guy in CA won't have a hull available till late this year or early next.

Thanks.

Ahoy Jim! Welcome to Model Shipwrights!

I would try Floating Drydock for those fittings.

Keep us posted on your build!

Kenny, thanks for the reply. I just checked the web site and the closest scale parts are 1/32 ones bt H-R. Will they be close enough, or will the look too small?
