I wonder if anyone can help me identify an unusual boat. I was told
that it's a military patrol boat, but it's so small that I'm not sure
that's accurate. It's just under 6' wide by about 15' long. The cabin
is 59" wide by 60" long by 45" high. The deck area is plywood, and it
has a plywood transom for an outboard motor. It's all aluminum, flat
bottom hull, with an enclosed cabin that has a glass door, 2 windows
in each side, and 2 hinged windshields. I wish I could post a photo
here, but I hope this description helps. Thanks for any ideas about
the identity of this unique boat.

Sounds like a good foul weather fishing boat. Stay in the cabin and
keep an eye on the rod tips and/or bobbers. Come out and grab the rod
when you get a bite.

45" high cabin? Does the floor extend below the deck?

No. The deck is flat from stern to bow. I don't see any way to get
access to the area under the plywood deck.

Probably be easier if you added a digital snap-shot of the boat in question.

But not here. This isn't a binaries group. You can post it to:
alt.binaries.pictures.sports.ocean
and let us know what subject line to look for.

I can post it on a simple web based page and then post a quick link
here if you want to email it to me. That way those of us who visit via
google and without readers installed can view it. My email is
justwaitafrekinminute at gmail dot com if you are so inclined.. You
can still post it over there too, but many here might not be able to
access it. I am kind of curious to see the boat, I fool with small
boats a lot

That'll work too.

Google doesn't carry alt.binaries.pictures.sports.ocean???

You
can still post it over there too

And please do.
.... and yes, you can use the same subject line there (but I think
jwafm already mentioned that).

That was my thought, just to post a link to a picture. I see other
links posted here.
