So, what do I take away from that?
It's hard to see in this photo, I'm looking at another angle in WorkBoat magazine that clearly shows the name, but can't find that one online.

Moose Boats, a designer and builder of unique aluminum boats based in Petaluma, has delivered a Moose M2-37 security and patrol vessel to the Oakland Police Department to provide expanded patrol duties at the Port of Oakland in addition to shallow draft response for Oakland’s waterfront.
The procurement by the City of Oakland was funded by U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s 2010 Port Security Grant Program. The vessel is stationed at Jack London Square and will provide security patrol for critical infrastructures including the Bay Bridge and Oakland Airport’s perimeter, SWAT interdiction and shallow water emergency response for the greater Bay Area.
The Moose M2-37 is a 37’-6" All-Aluminum Jet Powered Catamaran with twin Cummins 380 hp turbo diesels and is propelled by Hamilton 292 water jets. This vessel can attain a top speed of over 34 knots, cruise at almost 30 knots, come to a full-speed stop in less than two boat lengths and turn on a dime. Its 21" draft will allow all of this to be done in less than three feet of water, which is ideal for its patrol application in the Oakland estuary.
In other Moose news, the company has been awarded a new contract from the New Orleans Fire Department for the construction of a M3-36 Monohull CBRNE Fire Rescue Boat. The M3 is a new product line for Moose Boats and incorporates the builder’s established design and quality reputation in a more compact platform than the M1 and M2 Catamaran Vessels.
The M3-36 is a 36’-6" aluminum monohull powered by twin Yamaha 350 hp four-stroke outboard engines. The vessel will provide New Orleans Fire Department with fire fighting, rescue, dive and security capabilities. The M3-36 will be equipped with a dedicated 1,500 gallon-per-minute fire pump, dual remote control fire monitors, foam capabilities and a positive pressure CBRNE air filtration system. The New Orleans Fire Department vessel will be outfitted with a sophisticated navigation and communications suite, thermal imaging camera and an array of threat detection equipment.
Moose Boats has constructed several fire fighting vessels for many agencies throughout the United States including Tiburon Fire Rescue District and San Francisco Fire Department, Old Saybrook Fire Department in Connecticut, Lewes Fire Department in Delaware, Anne Arundel County in Maryland, Massport Fire/Rescue at Boston Logan Airport and Northport Fire Department in New York.
