Adjutant General
Equipment
The following is the list of the current inventory
of NJNMJC watercraft and their material
condition:
Monarch 23 foot aluminum patrol boats
1. PBU 23-1. Hull is sound with no evidence of crevice
corrosion. There is
minor pitting on bottom normal to an 18 year old boat. The two 150HP
engines, at or near their useful service life, are operational but
considered
unreliable due to excessive hours. Electronics and safety equipment
are
installed or available. Re-commissioning will render boat operational
and
seaworthy at approximately $24,000.
2. PBU 23-2. Hull is sound with no evidence of crevice
corrosion. There is
minor pitting on bottom normal for an 18 year old boat. Two 150
HP engines,
at or near their useful service life, are operational but considered
unreliable
due to excessive hours. Electronics and safety equipment are installed
or
available. Re-commissioning will render boat operational and seaworthy
at
approximately $24,000.
3. PBU 23-3. Hull is sound with no evidence of crevice
corrosion. There is
minor pitting on the bottom normal for an 18 year old boat. The
wo engines
are unserviceable and have been cannibalized for parts. The interior
seats and
lockers are missing. Electronics and safety equipment are available.
Installation of two new engines, seats and lockers, electronics
and recommissioning
will render boat operational and seaworthy. Recommissioning
will render boat operational and seaworthy at approximately
$28,000.
4. PBU 23-4. Hull is sound with no evidence of crevice
corrosion. There is
minor pitting on the bottom normal for an 18 year old boat.
Two 150 HP
engines are relatively new and are completely serviceable.

will render
boat operational and seaworthy at no cost.

boat 5. PBU 24-1. Hull is sound with no evidence of crevice
corrosion. The single
diesel engine is unserviceable and requires replacement.

of engine, installation of electronics, procurement of trailer,
and recommissioning
will render boat operational and seaworthy (operation of
this
vessel is not included in the budget; re-commissioning will
cost approximately
$30,000). |
