Hello listers.......there is a Trader paper for the Marine
industry that
has LCM's and LCU's for sale, Boats and Harbors is the name of the
paper. Find
someone in the industry and odds are they will have a back issue.
There are also PBR's, Swift Boats and any other form of retired military
watercraft.
Hang on to your billfold!!!!!!!
With very gentle arm twisting I could be talked into helping crew a
vessel to it's
new home port.
