Any one have paint schemes for MTBs and PT boats for World War 2 or where they can be found

"Allied Coastal Forces" volumes 1 and 2, by John Lambert and Al Ross, is probably the best source of information. Further, "Naval Camouflage 1914-1945" by David Williams is a good source.

Or, for PT Boats, the second photo in this shows what appears to be a PT boat camouflaged using the "Thayer" system. http://archive.hnsa.org/doc/pt/know/index.htm and this booklet gives the general general rules for camo including details of the scheme. http://archive.hnsa.org/doc/camo/index.htm
