Effin A....
I can see my wife and me running throw lines in the river out of this thing. Those Vietnamese crabbers that are thick than mosquitoes in our area may think twice about checking our lines

That looks like fun, even without the machine guns.

82' is a lot of boat but those drives could get into really shallow water.
This is an odd duck for commercial use but that's according to how much you're willing to spend on a refit.

Of course the fuel bill would be substantial.

There is one on display at the Navy Seal Museum on the beach in Fort Pierce Florida.
One bad ass little boat it is.

I ran across a guy in Florida that bought a 90 ft PT. He showed me around the boat. He said he could cruise around pretty cheap and if a storm loomed he could get out of danger quick. Pretty cool.

Turn it into a fishing charter. You will definitely get to the fishing grounds faster than a regular party boat.

I looked around and there are parts available for the engine and the Rolls Royce Kamewa 50-511 waterjet, just not at the corner parts store.

I think that particular boat once belonged to SBU 12.
