A PT boat, a swift torpedo motor boat
John. F. Kennedy
A PT boat is somewhere around 80 feet long, made of mahogany, powered by three Packard V-12 engines, and was intended to launch torpedoes against enemy ships. The PT boat was designed to operate in open ocean. A Swift boat is 50 feet long, made of aluminum, powered by two Detroit Diesel 12V71 engines, and was used in counterinsurgency operations, mostly up Vietnam's rivers. Now for the third kind of military boat: the PBR--Patrol Boat, River. It's a 31-foot fiberglass boat with two Detroit Diesel 6V53 engines attached to Jacuzzi jet pumps, and it's made to patrol the rivers. When a PBR is fully loaded, it only draws two feet of water.
