The behind the scenes work of SWCC operators
by Jonathan Weiss 22 hours ago
If you search for “SWCC Boats†online, there’s a good chance you’re going to come across a bunch of cool pictures of high-speed boats zipping around with some dudes decked out in full gear, accompanied by an array of small arms and heavy weapons. They are probably wearing cool-guy sunglasses or cutting-edge night vision. They may even have a dip of Copenhagen in the side of their mouth. But, there is a price to pay and long hours spent in order to make one of these “cool†pictures happen.
The first thing to understand is that boats are an absolute disaster, especially ones that are used in saltwater. They are constantly breaking and require an exorbitant amount of time, money, and labor to keep them maintained. On the civilian side of things, they’re one of the worst investments you can make — granted, that’s never stopped me.
