I learned to drive boats on this great hull on Lake Michigan 40 miles north thereof. That experience eventually led to pilot US NAVY PTFs in Vietnam 1968-69. The PTF is arguably one of the most incredible patrol craft ever to exist The hula we’re built in Finland and the propulsion was 2 3100 shaft hp Napier Deltec
In an 81- foot craft, We were the delivery and retrieval vehicle for Navy Special Warfare folks heading into the northern reaches of the South China Sea
My spine is still recovering!! :> ))
north of the DMZ
The PTF was an absolute Hoot to pilot!!
