  • Watch as Greg Biffle purchases two new Military LCM-8 landing craft vessels and heads to St. Augustine, Florida with St. Augustine Marina to haul the vessels out of the water to do some bottom work. Watch to see how these huge steel boats look when they are out of the water!

    I was Chief Engineer aboard the LCM-8607, Ft. Eustis, VA. US Army Watercraft. Many fond memories on the Mike boats.

    The "struts" that protect the propellers are called 'skegs'...

    Greg, thanks for the video! About that fuel expense... there is a lot of sponsorship real estate on those LCMs... Not to mention the diecast folks are missing out on this opportunity!

    Drove one of those in 67/ 68 in Vietnam, not much speed in those boats but you can haul 60-80 tons loved those and like you nothing like the smell of 4 gmc 671's in the moring.
