Picture examples for USFS landing crew boat design

The overall length of this vessel including a swim step transom and outboard motors should not exceed 32 feet. This boat shall be capable of shallow draft operations in rough seas (6-8 feet wave height), in Prince William Sound Alaska while allowing for regular shore landings to load and unload materials and people directly from an open forward deck on the boat to shore via a narrow, (36 inches minimum to 42 inches maximum), drop bow door. Tall gunnel sides and narrow bow door are preferred over a traditional landing craft for increased seaworthiness and to minimize the exposure of a large bow door.
