Commando Insertion boat - Military

Army or Navy - Special Forces Covert Operations

Commando Boat
The Special Covert Operations and Insertion boat is an aluminium vessel designed especially for the Australian Commando Regiment. Designed with reliability, speed and agility in mind, this boat has already proven its strength in trials. Of three manufacturers who supplied prototypes, our boat was the only one to complete the exhaustive 79 days of trials and tests by the Army. The others lasted 12 and 18 days respectively and were not considered for the finale of a gruelling coastline voyage from Melbourne to Sydney.
Capable of being parachuted from aircraft into action these are a highly reliable and cost effective option for special forces covert operations.

Military standards demand high quality and high performance, this boat meets such demands with an expected working life far in excess of other vessels of this type.
Options - Personal preferences
This vessel is flexible in it's features and the types of roles it may be employed in. Modify the fittings, the engine or even the length of the boat. With complete flexibility in size and fittings we can create a vessel for your needs. Even recreate it as a superb fishing boat, with the speed, stability and reliability you want!
