What type of boat for 15mm post apoc gaming?

I'm thinking of making a boat for my 15mm modern zombie range. I can't decide between a harbor tug and a police boat. There are a few other options as well--see the poll answers. Which would you guys prefer to see?

Fishing boats are plentiful IRL and would be a nice addition to the Scene's patrol and river boats

A pontoon boat would be cool.   Plenty of room for figures/weapons/gear and they are very available everyplace in the US I've been.

Would this boat model be designed as compatible with some of your other lines?

Personally I'm just as invested in Modern (non-zombie domestic, military) and Cold War as in Post-Apoc, so it'd be nice to be able to use it in several themes, perhaps even in non-U.S. settings (i.e. Kenyan fishing boat, Italian coast guard equivalent).

Either way, can't wait to see it...

Tie between fishing boat and coast guard vessel.  Think I'd go with the CG vessel as many other nations use the small and medium standard boats. For instance the Standard Boat - Medium has seen action in Iraq right up to today.
