What are the 1/2400 dimensions of a E- boat?

A friend wants me to make a few for a game.
I suggest just using the US PT boats so small can't really tell but guess I could try making one. I don't see it on a up coming GHQ list or is it??
Can someone calculate this out for me?
I want to double check my numbers

The E-boat was much bigger than a PT Boat: 80-100ton against 43-48ton.

The sixe in 1/2400 will be 13.6x2,1mm for the E-Boat against 10X2.63 mm for the PT Boat. In other words it was more than 1/3 longer but more slender.

Nashorn88,
You also asked about E-boats on a GHQ list.
So far, GHQ has not produced a model of the German motor torpedo boats and has not scheduled one for his season. We won't know about any future releases from GHQ until they announce next seasons releases in June.

Panzerschiffe makes a cast resin model and several 3-D print versions are available. They aren't as good as what GHQ would produce but they are adequate for gaming.

Those look pretty good.
I wouldn't be able to do much better
