HighPlainsDrifter 466 Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) Looks like an fg 42. So thats probably a German paratrooper during WWII. That's what I'm looking for. Longshot was close as the Fg 42 was used in development of the M60. Edited March 5, 2014 by HighPlainsDrifter Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gunfun 3,931 Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Alright. Here's another one from my old photo album. It was the subject of an Alaska Supreme Court case. The boat goes by two names and I will accept either. What is it, what is it made out of, and give me one name. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gunfun 3,931 Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 That's part of it, keep going. I know there is web content about this particular one out there. It's far from stanard. P.S. LARC owners tend to have punny senses of humor. I know of a couple named the CaddiLarc and the Lady Larc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MOBY DUCK: Modified LARC 5 Designed for application as commercial drift gillnet fishing vessel 4 person Bearthing and galley in forward cabin, overnight capabilities Greater sea range Cargo hold and deck equipment for fishing operation Edited March 6, 2014 by HighPlainsDrifter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gunfun 3,931 Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Good Jorb. I forgot he bought out the setnet tender operation. Kopra fished in an old AC wooden gillnetter while he was building the Moby Duck in his spare time. I think he spent most of a decade of winters getting it ready. It gave him an edge in one specific corner of the district for a few years. It was awful for most everything else. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
