Hello Keith, I was going through the revised edition of Squadron's "PT Boats in action", and on page 26, there is a photo of PT-487 that I believe shows the locker you're portraying in the above picture. I didn't know if you were aware of it or had seen it, so I thought that I'd bring it to your attention. I'm sorry but I can't scan the book to include the photo here. Hope this helps. Al

Hi Guys Thank.
Al I haven't that book but will get it shortly Hannants have it in stock No doubt I'll spot lots of other bits to tinker with when I do.

Late night typing causes typing impediments and weary eyes don't pickem up Warren.
I was trying to add how helpful W.E.M. had been helping me with colour options for both builds.
