The design, development, testing and fabrication process were undertaken in order to provide a much cheaper alternative to market available rubber boats. The project provided a cheaper (35% lesser) and sturdier (panels tested) rescue vessel to be used in flood prone communities in and out of the region. Providing additional livelihood for the communities of San Mateo, Rizal and Los Baños, Laguna, the project has currently fabricated two (2) units for private foundations and six (6) for the Local Government Units.
