When the New York City Police Department needed tough, compact vessels designed for the special requirements of New York Harbor and its surrounding waters, they ordered three 36-footers from C. Raymond Hunt Associates. The boats have Hunt deep-V hulls, built by Gladding-Hearn Shipbuilding in heavy-duty aluminum construction. They have a draft of only two and a half feet which allows access to the most difficult locations. Accommodations include a small galley and settee/berth arrangement in the foc's'le and seats for four people in the pilot house.
