Where can you get one of those coast guard boats. That thing was running real nice. The boat being chased was bouncing all about and the coast guard boat ran pretty flat. Who makes those?

Cool videos!!
They have more guts than I.
A few years back I watched a video of the 47' boat undergoing qualification testing. One test was how long the boat took to self-right from a fully inverted position. The test was in a lagoon. The boat was forced upside down by two canes with cables attached to the hull and pulling from opposite sides. Once the cables were released it only took seconds to flip upright. Really impressive.
