They skate a thin line. To do commercial trade, it requires a boat certified by the USCG and heavily inspected. They can "charter" the boat to anyone that can use it as they please but it is not really legal to supply your captain. These boats are very difficult to certify. My work boats needed no certification and working for the USN or other government (that we did a lot) also required no certification but passenger and freight vessels do.They have a few different sizes if I remember right it's called San Juan island taxi
If you look it up a few years ago one of there boats sank in the Guemmis Channel carrying a load of fish food to the same fish farm that release .They skate a thin line.

Boats under 26 feet have exemptions. I have a 26 foot steel landing craft/push boat here at the ranch we have a 26X14 on the river near Scappoose. My last large landing craft is working as a fish tender in Alaska and another one working in Panama.
The one they have up here is a thunder jet but bigger than that it can carry two cars .and they have one that can carry a small Simi truck propane truck"If someone could restore or build something similar to this, it could be good for the Willamette/Columbia/Molalla/Santiam river systems... if no dams in the way "

I was thinking more along the lines of a modernized versions of the River Monitor gunboats; with modern weaponry turrets like the Protector RWS, maybe the mk19 grenade launchers, or a variety of mounts for personal weapons"If someone could restore or build something similar to this, it could be good for the Willamette/Columbia/Molalla/Santiam river systems... if no dams in the way "

That reminds me of the salvage we did on a contractor's 36 foot LVCP that we salvaged in the Santa Barbera straight off Oxnard. The guy was too cheep to hire one of my bigger boats and loaded a cement truck on his boat for a trip to the islands. The truck was full and the tub was rotating. At some point, the cement hung up in the tub and the boat rolled truck and all. The driver was napping in the truck and as he tried to exit the open truck window (apparently already underwater) got his boot stuck in the west coast mirror and rode it to the bottom. We recovered the driver and LVCP that actually didn't completely sink but left the truck in 300 feet of water. Another example why I like big boats and equipment. I am never comfortable operating on the edge. My 118 foot LCU operated for something like 4,000 per day at that time. Pretty false economy.The one they have up here is a thunder jet but bigger than that it can carry two cars .and they have one that can carry a small Simi truck propane truck
