UNSPSC 25111937: Mast boot

A protective cover wrapped around the mast at the deck level to prevent water from entering the boat.

UNSPSC 25111937 Mast boot is a Commodity code that captures components and hardware for marine vessels, though recent state and local solicitations show the code is being used—or misapplied—for procurement of complete watercraft and marine infrastructure projects rather than mast-boot parts specifically. State and local governments are buying finished marine patrol vessels, ski boats, jet-boat frames, and boat-lift installation services under this code, suggesting a mismatch between the nominal commodity definition and actual procurement practice. Issuing bodies include county sheriff's offices and parks-and-recreation divisions, with Chatham County, Georgia and Collier County, Florida appearing as repeat buyers of marine equipment and services for law enforcement and public recreation programs.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia and Florida, with secondary activity in Oregon. Chatham County Marine Patrol issued an ITB due August 10, 2026, for a 27-foot-4-inch aluminum center-console patrol vessel fully equipped with dual Mercury engines, navigation systems, thermal imaging, and police radios—a turnkey platform rather than a component—funded under the 2025 DHS/FEMA Port Security Grant Program with a 30 percent M/WBE participation goal. Collier County Parks and Recreation solicited ski boats for Sugden Regional Park through Quick Quote procurement (responses due April 15 and February 27, 2026, respectively), each calling for 2026 model-year 20-foot fiberglass vessels with inboard GM 6.2L engines and tournament-approved waterski specifications. Marion County, Oregon awarded jet-boat frame fabrication to Marine 1, LLC following RFQ SO1805-26 (Notice of Intent to Award posted April 30, 2026). Collier County Sheriff's Office also solicited boat-lift installation services at Caxambas Park, a marine construction project (ITBs posted March 2 and April 17, 2026, with bids due April 3 and May 14, 2026). Sourcewell issued an RFP #061626 on behalf of Washington-state counties and other jurisdictions for a law enforcement equipment contracting vehicle (response deadline June 16, 2026), though the scope does not align closely with marine-equipment procurement. The code shows little direct relevance to its nominal definition as a mast-boot component; recent opportunities are for complete vessels and marine infrastructure, not parts.
