The NASBLA BOAT Program, delivered on our SAFE Boat platform, has proven to be an exceptional training experience combining precision, performance, and reliability on the water. SAFE Boats provide the stability and confidence operators need to execute complex maritime missions safely and effectively.

Josh Underwood Commander, St. John’s County Sheriff’s Office

Over the course of my maritime law enforcement career and my time as an instructor for the NASBLA BOAT Program, I have had the opportunity to operate hundreds of different types of vessels throughout the country and oversees. I have found that one company stands out from the rest. SAFE Boats are ruggedly dependable, purposely engineered for the intended mission, responsive and agile to operator input, and most importantly, the confidence their platforms provide to you and your crew knowing they are returning home safely. I cannot think of a better partner to NASBLA than SAFE Boats International.
