Thanks Greg.
That is an interesting site and lovely looking model.
I think most of what is posted above from the "Allwoodwings.com" site I have, but it is nice to get it confirmed.
MTB is Motor Torpedo Boat, a British term meaning the same as PT (Patrol Torpedo) in America.
This is quite a learning experience for me as before this last week I didn't know there ware so many varieties or makers of Torpedo Boats, let alone load-outs and configurations.
I was under the naive assumption that I could find some pictures of my boat or at least one similar and get on with it.
Maybe a potted history of what I have learnt might help!
Apparently a British MTB was brought from the UK and shipped to the USA during the early stages of WW2 for trials and research. The design was liked but considered too small at about 70 foot long due to American torpedoes being longer than the British counterpart. A competition was set up for a similar type of vessel and all three contestants were given contracts of varying amounts depending on favourability. Elco "80 foot" had the lions share, then Higgins "78 foot" and finally Huckins "not sure of length". Each make had their differences in length and deck shape, hence the need to find a similar vessel from that maker. I don't know enough to be able to tell the differences yet.
I know that PT201 was a British serving vessel in the Mediterranean.
That, I think, sums up my knowledge so far!
I know Google is your friend, but I keep forgetting to use the images there. Doh!
Busy looking through it now.
Anyway thanks so far. Any and all help received gratefully.
I have ordered a couple of books from Amazon that might help hopefully.
British Motor Torpedo Boat 1939-45; Angus Konstam. Flag 4: The Battle of Coastal Forces in the Mediterranean 1939-1945; Dudley Pope. Any other book recommendations?
PS; I have added some photos of my boat.
