Driver was a great sportsboat in the 80's giving 40kts + with just a 80hp, but IMHO it would make a horrible safety boat.
Because of the stop/start nature of the task its going to spend most of its life with its nose in the air, giving zero viability to the driver, not great for a safety boat.
Getting people out of the water will be difficult, narrow beam and high freeboard will make it tippy and difficult to keep contact with the casualty. Access really is only by a transom ladder, but no good if the casualty cant help them self.
