    NY Port Authority seems to have problems with their Moose Boats:
    <http://www.nydailynews.com/ny_local/2010/07/25/2010-07-25_you_call_this_a_patrol_boat_broken_moose_boats_left_broken_or_stuck_in_drydock.html>

    Could make a good sport / fish / commuter boat conversion, if finally surplused and sold at auction ….
    Anybody have experience with Moose Boats? At least one was built for private use, I think.

    Hi,

    This is a good example of a waste of public money.

    It would have been a smoother operation if they hired some maritime pros to run the boats and had the Cops onboard for the legal stuff.
