SeaArk Marine delivered a 44-ft. Dauntless Class patrol/rescue vessel to the U.S. Park Police at the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island in New York Harbor. The boat is responsible for patrol, surveillance, search and rescue, port security, diving and anti-terrorism activities in New York Harbor and surrounding waters. The SeaArk 44-ft. Dauntless is constructed of all-welded marine grade aluminum and features a deep-vee variable deadrise hull that produces a smooth, dry and stable ride. These characteristics are greatly appreciated by the crew for fast response and all-weather maneuvering capabilities. A recessed aft cockpit is installed to facilitate the vessel's mission, aiding in diving, recovery and towing operations and in boarding other vessels. The vessel is powered by twin Cummins QSM11 inboard diesel engines, each rated at 580 hp. Additional outfitting includes a 10.0 kW generator, an Icom VHF/FM radio, a Northstar chart plotter and a Furuno radar. In addition, a Hurley infrared system is installed for nighttime operations. For all-season crew comfort and operation, the boat includes central heating and air conditioning.
