Flex Fighter MAX
The World’s Best-Selling Security Boat
Newly upgraded 2021 model out now. Hurry! While stocks last!
Based on Penguin’s well-proven Flex-40 Series crewboat design and powered by three Caterpillar C32 main engines, the Flex Fighter MAX is the oil industry’s standard for armoured security crewboats, with industry-leading speed, comfort and endurance.
THE NEWLY UPGRADED FLEX FIGHTER MAX is fitted with all-round wheelhouse ballistic protection, machine gun mounts with gunner shields forward and aft, plush cabins and amenities for 12 security personnel, heavy-duty/self-cleaning fuel oil purifier, an external fire fighting monitor, as well as reclining seats for 54 pax (versus 42 pax in our 2020 model) and a 93-sqm cargo deck. For our latest model, we have included FuelTrax’s Electronic Fuel Management System as a standard feature. One new and exciting feature of our FLEX FIGHTER MAX is a fully fitted pantry on the main deck for passengers and security personnel.
You can count on your new FLEX FIGHTER MAX to provide reliable 24/7 protection for your personnel and property offshore.
