Workboats
M9 WORKBOAT
Many NATO forces use this rapidly inflated boat for reconnaissance or as a tender to large craft for landing parties.
The raised bow of the M9 is designed to take the weather at sea; it is also able to provide protection from breakers when embarking from the beach and is particularly useful when rocky or shallow conditions apply.
