Wow, I had no idea....
Re: The Higgins Boat was plywood??
I believe they were just a wooden hull with armor on the sides. I might be wrong though but im pretty sure that only the bottom of the boat would be wood with no other protection.
Re: The Higgins Boat was plywood??
IIRC the only metal part of the hull was the bow/ramp.
PT boats were made out of wood, too.
