RE: [Vietgaming] Riverine Boat Books and Sources


Naval Institute press did a great book on US small combatants... There are lots
of line drawings of all sorts of small boats from WW2 on. I was able to find a
cheap copy at a local store. I will look for the title/ author tonight.

Subject: [Vietgaming] Riverine Boat Books and Sources







Hi,

I just recently joined the group, as I am finally getting back into 20mm Vietnam
gaming. I've been reviewing old posts and finding answers to many of my
questions, but thought I'd ask about this as new sources can constantly become
available.

I've got a number good Riverine histories and am considering scratch-building
and then casting a number of Riverine craft for my games. But I am lacking
drawings (or drawings with enough detail) to do this. Are there any particularly
good sources for multi-view line drawings of the various boats and craft, and or
any comprehensive technical histories addressing the various marks and
differences made during the evolution of the designs?

I greatly appreciate any help.

Thanks,

Brian
