Are you confusing the bid from last year for two larger boats? The ones to replace Marine 1 and 9?

Perhaps these are new all together.

I don't think so, I think this would be for the two small boats they use during the boating season. The two surface effect boats are already in production I thought.

didnt marine 1 alpha go into service last year. its smaller so it can fit into some bays where regular marine 1 couldnt its also alot faster i remember last yeqar during one incedent in riverdale marine 1alpha had an eta of about 10 minutes while the regular marine would have taken a whole hour

usually stay away from this apparatus stuff...Robert Allan is the Naval Architect, no bids went out before, they finally got approval to send them out...they are for the 140' boats...the SAFE boats are currently being constructed, including the first 57' SAFE boat...the end
