2006 Silver Ships MKII Bridge Erection Boat w /Cummins Turbo Diesel Engines

2006 Silver Ships MKII Bridge Erection Boat & Tri-Axle Trailer 

Midwest Military Equipment is offering this 2006 Silver Ships MKII Bridge Erection Boat, an exceptionally rare military watercraft in excellent overall condition. Powered by twin Cummins 12-valve turbo diesel engines and equipped with UltraJet water jet propulsion, this vessel was originally designed for demanding military operations.

Unlike many surplus bridge erection boats available on the civilian market, this is a true 2006-manufactured vessel, not a 1980s-era hull that was refurbished or overhauled. Finding one of these boats in civilian ownership, especially in this condition, is extremely uncommon.

The boat has been serviced, inspected, and water-tested by our shop and is ready for its next owner.
