In WoodenBoat No. 252, Sept/Oct 2016, Editor Matt Murphy explores the work of Leslie Jones (1886–1967), a staff photographer for The Boston Herald Traveler from 1917 to 1956. Jones had a particular interest in yachting, and covered racing at Marblehead, 20 or so miles northeast of Boston, throughout his career. His 40,000 photographs, covering subjects ranging from sports to celebrities to crime to everyday life, are cared for by the Boston Public Library. Here we present links to the stunning images in our article so readers may explore them in greater detail than that allowed by the printed page.

WoodenBoat magazine No. 251 (July/August 2016) includes an article on PT-658, a 78′ Higgins motor torpedo boat built for the U.S. Navy during World War II. A group of PT Boat veterans banded together to restore her between 1995 and 2005, and the boat is now fully functional and afloat as a museum ship in Portland Oregon. Powered by three working 1,850-hp Packard V-12 gasoline engines, PT-658 is today the only fully operational World War II-era PT Boat.

The following is a list of resources for those who wish to explore PT boats in more depth.
