    Most of the US Navy launches are built far in excess of the CG requirements.

    Fire retardant resin , most with full flotation and heavy enough construction to last many decades.

    They can be found in Boats and Harbors , or you can visit and bid directly from the USN..

    Direct bidding will save 3/4 on the price , but you MUST be able to take delivery as the USN requires.

    The CG process for converting to inspected vessel statue is not complex , but does take a while .

    The 50 Utility has been USCG licensed for about 80 pax , although the USN used them for 150.

    The 40 Utility will carry fewer , but costs less.

    Good hunting.
