The Metal Shark 26 Relentless is a welded aluminum high performance center console patrol craft with a modern, crew-friendly arrangement designed with law enforcement and security missions in mind. Relentless series models are characterized by their performance hulls and by the urethane-sheathed closed-cell foam collar that provides impact protection during docking, boarding, or alongside maneuvers. The 26 Relentless is easily trailerable but handles capably in rough seas. Other notable features of this popular and proven craft are its wide-open layout, with a large flat non-skid floor that provides sure footing, and wide gunnels that allow for easy access from bow to stern. Integrated dive reliefs on both the port and starboard side facilitate boarding and recovery operations. With a high performance hull designed by renowned naval architect Michael Peters, the 26 Relentless is compact and easily trailerable, yet still provides a comfortable, dry ride in rough waters. The vessel’s efficient hull delivers outstanding speed, precision handling, and turns on a dime, with durable welded-aluminum construction that no fiberglass boat could match. Equipped with twin outboards for up to 600 total horsepower, the vessel is responsive and highly maneuverable yet handles predictably while operating at speed. The 26 Relentless is a purpose-built, professional grade patrol craft featuring a roomy layout, with ample freeboard and a flat non-skid floor running from bow to stern. The vessel shown here was built for Florida Fish & Wildlife Commission (FWC) and is representative of Metal Shark’s LE configuration.
