The boat will operate in New Hampshire estuarine waters up to 10 miles offshore and be berthed year-round in salt water at a Piscataqua River facility. The builder must have experience constructing aluminum-hulled work vessels for oil spill environments and must provide cut sheets/photographs with their bid.
