RAAF crash boats
I found this pic in a op shop book
' Aust. and NZ warships since 1946 '
These crash boats were delivered to the RAN and commissioned in 1944-45 . In 1946 they were transferred to the RAAF . A couple of them lasted until 1985 . Five years after the Corowa event began !
This pic is Neutral Bay ( Sydney harbour ? ) 1960's I would think .
Engines 2 X Hall Scott V12's .
Speed 33.5 knots
The vessel 02-113 was built by Lars Halvosen in 1957 to the WW2 design , it had 2X GM diesels . Why they made one more .... ?
