INLANDER
The ELASTEC Inlander (aluminum work boat) is a hybrid of hull styles (Skiff, John, Sled) to give you a multi-purpose boat with unique capabilities. The modified V hull with a blunt bow, high sides, and a wide stance increase the payload to double that of similar boats, an impressive, 4,000 lbs./1,800 kg – added to which they can be lashed together for even more versatility. The Inlander is perfect for oil spill response, emergency response, rescue, cargo hauling, and commercial fishing applications.
LANDING CRAFT
ELASTEC aluminum landing craft are designed to operate in shallow or open water conditions. Recognizing that response and waterway maintenance may require beaching, they are fitted with a bow ramp. These impressive aluminum work boats can typically achieve 30 to 40 knots depending on choice of propulsion options.
OMNI CATAMARAN
The ELASTEC Omni Catamaran is a versatile aluminum work boat that offers a variety of waterway maintenance and marina services applications. Its interchangeable “pods” are easily exchanged to facilitate various marine tasks such as: collecting floating debris, transporting cargo, pumping out boat sewage, cutting invasive aquatic weeds, supporting diving operations, lifting buoys and responding to oil spills.
PLATFORM WORKBOAT
The ELASTEC Platform Workboat is manufactured at our Carmi, Illinois USA facility. Its rugged design allows for this versatile utility service barge to perform a variety of waterway maintenance and marina tasks. This vessel requires minimal upkeep as it has few moving parts and its propulsion is provided by a single outboard. Custom deck arrangements are available per your design or project specifications.
