To this end, over 600 agencies worldwide, including the Federal Bureau of Investigation, have invested in the boat system that has changed how they conduct water op- erations. But, perhaps, it is the smaller, less ? nancially en- dowed organizations that constitute Rescue ONEs most important customers. Neighboring communities only able to purchase one boat get the full bene? t of the system when they join forces on a particular incident or response by pooling resources. Thats economy of scale and utility. Thats Rescue ONE. FREEDOM 21 FROM SILVER SHIPS: THE AFFORDABLE LAW ENFORCEMENT PLATFORM For municipal police departments thirsting for a qual- ity maritime platform even in the leanest of times, Silver Ships has just the tonic for what ails them. Thats because, for about $128,000, they can obtain a ? rst rate, capable patrol vessel that not only puts them in the water, it does so with superior performance, too. That low entry price comes complete with a full trailer package and with a ves- sel that is capable of making speeds of up to 40 KT, using an Evinrude 250 engine, with a relatively shallow 18? draft that will also take them to just about any place where there is even the smallest amount of water. A host of optional upgrades completes the package for those municipalities with a bit more to spend. At the Sheriffs Convention in Charlotte, they even took their ? rst order. Silver Ships has provided, on a global basis, military, municipal and commercial users with work and patrol vessels for more than 27 years. On any given day in the factory, youll ? nd Law Enforcement boats side by side to US Navy program boats with a variety of state, Federal & DOD as well as foreign market mixed in.
