Silver Ships Delivers Four of Seven Coastal Fast-Response Boats

Aluminum boat builder Silver Ships, Inc., of Theodore has completed construction and delivery of four of seven coastal fast-response boats (CFRB) under a $6.12-million contract from Naval Sea Systems Command. The custom-designed boats feature specialized communication and navigation equipment and will be used for coastal and harbor patrol, and as law enforcement interceptors. The CFRB series is versatile and can be tailored to specific mission needs. The CFRB was developed in response to the U.S. Navy’s workboat program requirements. The 46-ft deep-vee hull vessels feature a cabin and WING collar system. They are powered by twin Caterpillar C7 500-hp inboard diesel engines and Hamilton HX-29 waterjets, which enable the vessels to continuously operate in shallow and coastal areas where outboards would typically be less effective. The large, fast cabin vessel amplifies the features of Silver Ships’ popular Endeavor and Ambar series vessels. As the design of this series evolved, Silver Ships’ leadership deemed it worthy of series implementation. Currently, Silver Ships has a CFRB fireboat variant in production.
