The Brown is a beautiful ship. She was in Baltimore two summers ago. She was berthed across the harbor from the Torsk. She is a real labor of love.

She's in great condition. It was cool to go in the engine room, as they had equipment running. It was freakin' hot in there! It would be fun to go on one of their cruises.

The cruises are not that expensive if I remember correctly. They offer them here in the Chesapeake Bay. The guys who run her are super nice as well. If you told them you restore that PT by you home they would have given you the grand tour. They appreciate those that restore and maintaine these naval ships from WW2.
