Hey Joe if it is your life they save is it worth the money then. All they have to do is be a presence, which will be a determint. Save 1 life and it is worth the money.

Can't you see them shooting at people on the water I doubt it will ever happen, I am pretty sure that that boat wont catch most bass boats especially since it is armored and probably has about a four foot draft. It can operate in 12" of water.

I agree. Waste of money. Airpower trumps sea power.

I got this twice in email last week.
Anyone actually seen this thing in person/on the water? I bet it has a heck of a wake!
And this may be a totally dumb question, but why Highway Patrol? Why not Border Patrol or TPWD Game Warden? Because if it was a Texas Game Warden boat the state wouldn't allot them a enough gasoline to even start all of those horses!
