Default Navy Seal Boats

A couple of pictures of some Navy SEAL boats ready for shipment. I'm not sure what model they are. If anyone knows, let me know. I have seen a couple of videos on YouTube showing them being air dropped, in use off VA Beach, and coming into Rudee Inlet. I see some Mercury Racing outdrives, but no steps in the hull. The NAVY may be due for an upgraded model. Definitely some nice trucks/trailers. I have seen them on I-64 a few times in traffic.

I think they are where those 180k Cummins from Innovation go.

These are the RIBS at Mayport NS J-ville, I'll be back there this week as long as my COVID2 shot doesn't knock me in the dirt, which I just got.

The trailers are made by Myco. I have been there a number of times when they are finishing up a building run and the trailers are getting ready for shipment. To say there is some MAJOR engineering going on ie: Weight, structure, etc. is a under statement. And all info is classified.

That DOES happen. Keep in mind that these are working boats and cosmetically they look like crap. Usually gun mounts and other gear have been bolted in that are removed when sold.......You are left with strange metal base plates and holes in very obvious locations.

Even though they are built like brick-****houses, they do try to optimize weight; as they are often loaded onto cargo planes with their trailers. That's why you see the holes in the trailers.
