Shipmate 60.
I did not stick to scale in my build it was 1/39 so the closest I could get is 1/35 but It is close.This is a toy for the pond in back as it started then just got out of hand so to speak.
I grew up in San Diego and was infleuenced by the Seal teams in Coronado.The U.S.S. Crockett was one of the seventeen gunboats in the Asheville Class. This class had the distinction of being the first group of Navy Ships to be powered by a gas turbine. The Crockett was capable of a top speed of 50 knots but more impressive still was the fact that she could accelerate her 230 tons from 0 to 40 knots in 60 seconds. The Crockett, stationed in South Vietnam was designed for coastal patrol, blockade reconnaissance, and support missions. But rest assured when duty called, the crew of the U.S.S. Crockett could get there in a hurry. The Dumas model of the Crockett is a builders boat. She features balsa plank over die-cut mahogany frame construction for the hull, and conventional die-cut construction for the superstructure. That is why I overpowered the model...
[From the description about the Dumas Model.] Seemed Ideal for Vietnam river missions.Also had normal diesel power.
