Hello Ian,
Dumas boats is a good place to start! They sell two RC PT boat kits, one is of wood construction and the other starts you off with a fiberglass hull. Plus they have all the hardware you will need. Here is the Link.

Ian,
Glad to see someone dealing in mosquito boats. Check out my post on this site about large R/C boats. Try going to this site: http://www.geocities.com/mosquitoboat/
You will find many scales here. I went with 1/16 scale, the bigger the better.
