100 ft boats are mostly cost guard ships... Med to Hvy Cutters. Not really
a "blue water" vessel. Small crews, lite armament if any at all and no
chopper facilitys except maybe for HIFR (Hot in flight Refuling).

Patrol vessels, like the Pegasus class hydrofoils also, I think. I need to do
a bit of research on that.

I'll get back to you in a day or so, if others havent answered this by then.

A vessel of that category could fit into one of two different categories.
First, it could be a yacht. Or, second, it is a Hull 1 (2 tops) naval hull
chassis.

Displacement would probably be about 100 tons or so, as I am comparing the
shuttle to the thing you are looking at, as it weighs somewhere in the 100t
range (last I checked). Oh, and the weight for the shuttle I just quoted (I
hope) is in English tons (1 ton = 2000 lbs).

P.S. I should have some home-made naval category chassis up on HHHJr sometime
tonight.
