U.S. Coast Guard Station Sturgeon Bay has one of these incredible airboats. The Special Purpose Craft Airboats (SPC-AIR) are utilized by various Coast Guard units in the execution of ice rescue missions, flood response, and are capable of operating over water, ice and short distances on land. Airboats are also used to get responders into shallow water areas and marsh areas where deep-draft vessels cannot go. They range in length from 18-feet to 24-feet.
