That is a neat one. I need one.

Not a ship guy, but I’ve seen a bunch. Never that one. Cool build and great markings.
Thanks,

Re: The Duke's Shipyards Launches a Swift Boat.
Thank you Lyle! I'd love to see you get and build one!
Thank you John! This one is a relatively new model; just came out earlier this year.
Thank you Blacksheep! Yes, you do need one!
Thank you Carlos! I'm trying to see how many of these small, fast boats I can build.
