Yer boat's too modern. Radar, extra guns, 1945 not 1942...

Nice! :sunny:

If that's the Interstate 5 bridge over the Willamette River, there's PLENTY of clearance. I always get the willies driving over that thing. :cool: It's just foreshortening making it look lower than it really is.

Excellent pictures.
