The military requires a distinctive set of vessels that do not fall within the confines of a SAFE standard boat line. SAFE offers these configurations and others to meet unique mission requirements of our customers. Riverine boats are vessels specifically designed to operate in littoral and shallow water environments. SAFE’s riverine platforms are well known for their survivability and shallow draft capabilities, all while maintaining excellent maneuverability. SAFE offers riverine configurations that are designed to meet the client’s unique mission requirements. Some examples of integrated features and options include: Armor design and integration Shallow draft design with beaching plates (RPB) Heavy and medium machine gun mounts Unmanned remote weapon mounts Remote optics and sensors Rough terrain trailers Nuclear-Biological-Chemical (NBC) filtration systems Integrated tactical communications Reduced signature designs and coatings Actuating bow and stern ramps Air and surface ship transportability Troop Transport and Tactical Mobility The Riverine Patrol Boat (RPB) is an advanced multi-mission platform designed to provide tactical mobility and fire support in opposed riverine and littoral environments. Mk VI The Mk VI is the U.S. Navy’s next generation Patrol Boat and is a part of the Navy Expeditionary Combat Command’s (NECC) fleet of combatant craft.

The Special Purpose – Emergency Medical Transport features an elongated full cabin (optional climate controlled), actuated drop bow, opening face door and secure benches for two patients in full stokes litters. This configuration allows for stokes litters to be removed safely from the water and out of the elements, as well as off the bow of the boat and into a waiting ambulance. The bow design, wide swinging cabin door, ample front deck space and abundant storage also make it an excellent choice for dive ops. It is a powerful vessel that gets the job done when the stakes are high.

The SAFE Full Cabin is an outboard-driven vessel used by the U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Customs and Border Protection and scores of other agencies in the U.S. and worldwide. It is a proven platform for patrols, response, port security, law enforcement and search and rescue (SAR) in nearly any mission environment. The fully enclosed cabin can be climate controlled with optional generator, A/C and diesel heater.

The SAFE Center Console design allows for enhanced visibility and maximized deck space for crew movement, storage, equipment, and customizable locker configurations. Center Console vessels are strong, fast, durable and highly maneuverable, enabling a wide variety of mission applications including response, law enforcement, research, search and rescue (SAR) and dive ops.

SAFE Boats designs and builds boats for many state and local fire departments as well as other agencies that require firefighting capabilities. We’ve brought our deep experience building boats for military and law enforcement applications and developed vessels that exceed operational requirements for fire and rescue missions. Well-built firefighting vessels have features that enable crews to focus on saving lives. SAFE vessels are designed for the requirements of these specialized missions but have the operational versatility to be used in other settings, making them equally suited for smaller organizations with limited budgets. SAFE Boats has developed option packages to meet the requirements of state and local agencies all over the world. Explore some of the available options below.

The outboard-driven Walk Around Cabin (WAC) combines the crew comfort benefits of the SAFE Full Cabin with the increased deck space of a Center Console. The fully enclosed, climate-controlled (optional) cabin provides crews protection from the elements while ergonomically allowing for “walking around” the cabin while still on deck. This is the most budget-friendly option for a climate-controlled cabin. Fast, strong and highly maneuverable, the Walk Around Cabin is a proven platform for response, law enforcement and search and rescue (SAR), with minimal crew required for operation.

The SAFE Interceptor is a high-speed interdiction vessel with a mission-proven hull design and can offer an exclusive track mounting system which allows the operator to rapidly configure the aft deck to accommodate a variety of seating and mission-specific payloads. The Interceptor can operate at top speeds in the harshest seas and features an open T-Top design to maximize visibility at all angles. Ergonomic features maximize efficiency and enhance ease of movement around the vessel while the unique hull designs deliver unbelievable cornering performance.
