Built for the marine unit that works every shift.
American-made HDPE patrol boats for law enforcement marine units, sheriff’s offices, and harbor patrol. Engineered in-house in Wyoming to run shift after shift with no rust, no recoating, and no annual haul-out.
The boat is no good to you tied to the dock.
A marine unit needs a boat that launches when the call comes, not one waiting on a repair. Hard daily use, different operators every shift, and weather that does not wait. HDPE takes all of it, and we weld every hull from it.
Ready when the call comes in.
HDPE does not rust, pit, or blister, so there is no bottom paint and no annual yard bill pulling the boat out of rotation. It stays on the trailer or in the water, ready for the next shift, not stuck in a repair queue.
Take the dock strike and keep going.
HDPE absorbs impacts that dent aluminum and crack fiberglass, with no gelcoat to chip. Night launches, fast approaches, and hard landings are part of the job, and the hull shrugs them off.
Built for a different driver every shift.
A patrol boat gets handed off constantly, and HDPE forgives the wear that comes with it. No fragile finish to baby and no surface that punishes a hard day, just a hull that keeps showing up.
Damaged on duty? Welded, not written off.
HDPE is welded, not glued or riveted, so a repair is heat and a strip of the same material. No gelcoat to match and no fiberglass cure time keeping the boat off the water.
Recovered pipe. Made in Wyoming.
Every hull starts as decommissioned HDPE pipe, reclaimed and rebuilt in-house. 100% recycled, 100% recyclable, and American made, with a build trail your procurement office will like.
Recommended Builds
The right boat forevery patrol.
Two HDPE hulls, matched to the water your marine unit actually runs.
Inland & river
Lakes, rivers, and reservoirs. Routine patrol, enforcement, and shoreline checks close to the ramp.
Starting at $41,000
L820 HDPE Boat
A steady 20-foot platform with the deck space and fuel range for long patrol shifts. A 55-gallon fuel system keeps the boat out on the water, with the low maintenance HDPE is known for.

Where They Work
One boat, every call on the water.
Routine patrol
A stable, low-maintenance hull for daily presence on lakes, rivers, harbors, and waterways.
Rapid response
The L718 RIB brings agility and speed to fast-paced calls when minutes on the water matter.
Search & recovery
A quiet, low-wake platform with an open deck for dive teams, sonar, and recovery gear.
Water rescue
A foam-filled hull with positive flotation and a low freeboard that makes recoveries easier.
Cold-water & ice patrol
HDPE keeps its impact toughness below freezing, where aluminum dents and fiberglass cracks.
Event & waterway security
A dependable platform for regattas, public events, and high-traffic zones that need a presence.
Built from the
molecular level up.
American Made
Our HDPE barges and boats are designed, engineered, and manufactured under one roof. That gives us the ability to ensure everything is built to the highest standards and quality possible.
Every hull starts on a CAD station in our own engineering office, gets reviewed by the same team that will build it, and rolls out the door of the facility it was specified in. No outsourced naval architecture, no overseas fabrication, no handoffs between vendors who have never met. The crew welding your barge knows the engineer who drew it, and the engineer knows the operators who will run it.
That vertical integration is the difference between a barge that meets a spec sheet and a boats that solves the actual job in front of you. When you need a deck modification, a custom crane base, or a non-standard hull thickness for a specific operating environment, you are talking to the people who can answer in the same week, not the same quarter.

Common Questions
HDPE patrol boats, answered.
Straight answers on durability, uptime, field repairs, and fitting out a Legacy patrol boat.
HDPE absorbs impacts that dent aluminum and crack fiberglass, and the hull is solid material rather than a coated shell, so there is no gelcoat to chip under daily docking, debris, and hard landings. It takes the abuse of constant use and keeps running.
Read more on the strength of recycled HDPE hulls →A patrol boat gets handed off constantly, and HDPE forgives the wear that comes with it. There is no fragile finish to baby and no surface that punishes a hard day, so the boat keeps showing up shift after shift with minimal upkeep.
Read more on HDPE boat maintenance →Legacy hulls are built with foam-filled positive flotation. A swamped boat keeps floating and stays usable as a working platform, which is the condition a marine unit cannot afford to lose in the middle of a call.
Read more on how HDPE boats handle safety →HDPE is welded, not glued or riveted. Damage is repaired with heat and a strip of the same material, with no gelcoat to match and no fiberglass cure time, which keeps fixes straightforward and often handles them in-house rather than at a distant yard.
Read more on repairing an HDPE boat →Yes. Power packages, deck layouts, consoles, and mounting points are configured to your mission, from lighting and electronics to equipment racks. Because we engineer and build in-house, mission-specific gear is part of the build rather than an afterthought.
Read more on custom layouts and options →HDPE does not rust, corrode, or need recoating, it survives impacts that dent aluminum and crack fiberglass, and it floats. The trade-offs come down to weight and up-front cost, which is why matching the right hull to your patrol water matters.
