This is the manufacturer's website

United States Marine Inc.
http://www.usmi.com/RiverineCraft.htm

Scroll down and click on drawing, then all you need is dimensions to convert to 1/xx scale

I am planning to build the Mark V when I have the free time

Here is one that is kind-a-sorta similar that could be used as a base or model. It is really pricey though.

1/35 French ETRACO (Engin Tres Rapide d'Action Commando) from Propaganda Company.



It looks smaller than the current USMC Riverene boat though.



This link has dimensions and other characteristics of the boats. It doesn't look too difficult to scratch.

Good luck and keep us posted.
