UNSPSC 25111519: Racing boat or shell

A small boat propelled by oars designed for high speed. Used in racing competitions.

UNSPSC 25111519 Racing boat or shell is a Commodity code that in recent state and local practice encompasses recreational and operational watercraft including ski boats, pedal boats, and marine patrol vessels—not solely competition racing shells. State and local governments procure these vessels primarily for parks and recreation departments operating public instruction and rental programs, and for law enforcement agencies supporting marine patrol operations. Recent solicitations show counties and regional park authorities buying tournament-spec ski boats with inboard engines and GPS systems for water sports instruction serving mixed-age and disability-inclusive populations, pedal boats for marina rentals, and outboard motors for law enforcement watercraft. A Sourcewell cooperative purchasing agreement (RFP #061626, due June 16, 2026) establishes a multi-jurisdiction law enforcement equipment framework spanning Washington counties and numerous public entities across the United States and Canada, suggesting the code may also capture police and security equipment outside traditional recreational scope—though the specific boat or vessel components within that law enforcement framework are not itemized in the available solicitation summary.

Recent activity centers on Florida, Missouri, and Georgia. Collier County Parks and Recreation Division in Florida has posted multiple Quick Quote solicitations for ski boats (QQ2026112 and QQ2026095, both for 2026 model-year 20-foot inboard vessels with GM 6.2L engines and tournament specifications). Jackson County, Missouri issued ITB No. 26-013 (due May 5, 2026) for three pedal boats designated for lake marina rentals, with Paddle Wheeler PW4-comparable specifications and delivery to Blue Springs and Kansas City locations. Chatham County, Georgia solicited two new Mercury outboard motors for marine patrol (due May 4, 2026). The issuing-body mix reflects county parks and recreation departments and county marine patrol divisions, with one multi-state cooperative purchasing authority. No major activity is evident in school districts or transit authorities under this code in the recent window.
