This is the James DeSimone boat which is horribly
underscale, but I think of mine as being a caricature of the real thing,
not a model. The boat has quite a lot of brass and styrene added to it,
and weighs about 30 lbs now. The inside deck is 3/4" presswood with the
raised part made of 2x4's, the whole thing covered with styrene plating.
Even with all that weight added, it still sat pretty high in the water
last time I checked. I still have to make a grenade launcher for it, but
the rest is done.
