Raytheon radar, a Vickers pump,
Bloom L-8 winches, a Munson cus- tom trawl gantry designed to ac- commodate net towing for fish sam- pling, and a 14-inch by 16-inch Mari- time Fabrication anchor winch.

Marine Patrol Vessel
The Public Safety Department of
Hawaii took delivery of a vessel that satisfied its needs for speed and economy. The 32-foot Hammerhead patrol boat's hull can handle high speeds in heavy seas. Dual Volvo
AQAD41/DP engines provide a top speed of 30 knots, and the 200-gal- lon fuel tank allows up to 30 hours at cruising speed before refueling.
The vessel is equipped with a Gall 6390 AL-FRAN law enforcement light bar, Jabsco candlepower spot/ search light, Whelen WS-295 100- watt PA siren, and Titan GX2320B
VHF radio.
Emergency rescue operations are assisted by a dive door and dive platform. A Poseidon 3.9 CFM dive compressor, Furuno #1731 radar,
Sitex five-channel GPS plotter,
Alden #406 EPIRB, Aquameter 147 compass, Bentley's pilot chair and
Sealand #510 marine head complete the outfitting package.
Boom Deployment Vessel
The Clean Islands Council of Ho- nolulu, Hawaii needed a solid, de- pendable boom deployment vessel to complement its fleet. The Council found what it was looking for in a
Munson 24-foot Hammerhead.
The boat is outfitted with dual
OMC (Johnson), 175 hp outboard engines with dual binnacle OMC controls. Steering is Morse hydrau- lic.
A Boaters' Best 850 LB manual strap winch activates the bow door.
The vessel is equipped with heavy duty marine grade Baywood 10-inch cast aluminum cleats, Aqua Signal
Series 20 navigation lights and
Stewart Warner Quartz Hobbs dual deck floodlights. A Sealand 964 head system is installed in one of the two forward lockers.
