18' Boston Whaler Raider - Dive, Commercial, Rugged
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=2468535 382
"unsinkable" 1989, 18'6" Boston Whaler Raider RRC, and trailer. This boat is really rugged - built for US Marine Special Operation units to "...conduct amphibious raids on short notice at night in adverse weather conditions from over-the-horizon via air or surface means against distant inland targets." It's one of a small number built by Boston Whaler's Commercial Products Division, which was formed in 1983 to produce heavy duty combat, law enforcement, fire/rescue and general purpose workboats. Military documents say it's designed for "...deployment from amphibious ships 20 miles from shore, ..in varying sea states, up to and including Sea State 3/Beaufort Force 4, and surf zones characterized by predominantly spilling breakers with a Significant Wave Height of six feet and a period of 17 seconds for trained coxswains." This boat is rare, of unique design, and extremely heavy duty - the ideal boat for commercial work, heavy weather conditions, diving, frequent beaching, or anything that places heavy demands on the hull ..
