Thank you Don:
I found the book on the Royal Naval Coastal Forces super useful for a modeler. It has most of the craft data and diagrams that were used by the Royal Navy and the Commonwealth (and Poland); from the prewar tiny CMB to the mighty Fairmile D, with the exception of the SGB.
The Ballantine still a nice introduction to these boats, after almost 50 years of the first edition. It covers most theaters of operation in a brief way.
I also intent to cover some of the craft used in the Mediterranean and the Pacific. Although for the IJN there is a lack of reliable information, and to a lesser degree for the Regia Marina. Any pointers?
