APPROVE PURCHASE ORDERS WITH PERFORMANCE MARINE AND KING HARBOR MARINE CENTER FOR THE REFURBISHMENT OF HARBOR PATROL VESSEL UNIT 801 FOR A TOTAL COST OF $57,909.24
end
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Harbor Patrol Vessel Unit 801 is scheduled for replacement. Given the significant rising costs of industry equipment and the lead time required to procure and build a new vessel, the Fire Department, having consulted with Public Works, is recommending extending the life of the vessel through the completion of refurbishment work. Specifically, the extension will be enabled by replacing the vessel's two engines and conducting additional boat maintenance. The vessel is used frequently by the Harbor Patrol Division to offer assistance and emergency response to boaters in and around the harbor. Completion of the work will extend the vessel's life-span by approximately 4 years. The purchase order (see attached) with Performance Marine for the two replacement engines totals $41,289.96. The purchase orders (see attached) with King Harbor Marine Center for installation of the engines and the additional boat rehabilitation work total $16,619.28.
