They have an original Higgins Boat on display at the WWII museum in New Orleans. Ridiculously flimsy but served it’s purpose. That museum is a must visit if you’re ever in New Orleans.

Just watched a video about Higgins and the one at the museum in New Orleans is a replica built from the original blueprints along with help from some of the workers that constructed them during the war.
