I also like the idea of PT boats. To differentiate them from destroyers, I see them like this:
PTs would do less damage than subs. or destroyers
PTs would have limited AA defense
PTs would have very little hit points
PTs would not stand long against other naval units or naval bombers
So, why build them?
PTs would be fast. Really fast.
PTs would patrol like planes, and be able to break away from an engagement
I think that implemented thusly PTs would make sense in gameplay and in historical fact. The only flaw I see is that they would have unlimited ammo and fuel, but every unit in the game has the same flaw.
