So outside of Pensacola today I see a monster three engine 30 foot boat being pulled eastbound on I10 that said "Texas Highway Patrol" on it. WTF does the Texas HP need a boat especially an offshore one for?

Isn't the Hwy Patrol essentially the state police of Texas? TX has lakes, a river next to a lot of crime and coast on the Gulf.

Texas Navy. I believe those boats came into play after the man was killed on his PWC on falcon lake, with his wife escaping after a chase?

this one did NOT go the way OP intended did it?
as far as the cost of the boats/motors... they routinely intercept duffle bags with millions on the way back to mexico.. funding is not an issue |
|
Just think of all the illicit drugs and illegal immigrants that would make it across the border if it weren't for these boats.
They must have received a lot of DHS money to hang $100k off the back of those. |

They're crappy center consoles. Safe boats are the way to go.

There are actually six (6) of those purchased by the Texas DPS for patrolling the Rio Grande against the drug cartels.
The boats are mfg by Yellowfin Yachts just down the street from my shop here in Bradenton,Fla. They sport a fully armored front section, armored side panels, ballistic 'curtains' plus mounts for six M240 LMG's - twins in the bow and two single mounted guns aft of the cockpit, both port and starboard. |

If you believe one of the other threads on here. One of these vessels will be captained by texas attorney general abbott in his battle against the BLM, as he sails closer to the election. He will be the guy in the boat wearing the penny loafers....
