"The Dolphin catamaran was developed in response to the sobering realization that the G.I.Joe team did not have any seacraft that were truly optimized for combat against other fast and well armed vessels like the lethal Cobra Moray hydrofoil. The Dolphin is similar in size to the Moray, being slightly shorter but also wider, is comparably armed, and carries a crew of four to six. The Dolphin is armed to the teeth, with a 30mm autocannon and a box of four anti aircraft missiles that rotate 360 degrees around the radar mast; and two heavy machine guns and two antishipping missiles facing forward. It also carries side-mounted light machine guns in the rear, up to three torpedoes in the hull, and can also carry depth charges and mines that can be jettisoned from the stern. This formidable arsenal makes the Dolphin well equipped to take on all enemy combatants of similar size in equal footing, and also many vessels that are much larger.
Alternatively, the Dolphin can also carry a squad of troops for boarding ships or landing onshore, but the W.H.A.L.E. is still the ideal G.I.Joe landing craft."

Since there is already a S.H.A.R.C., I've renamed the Shark 9000 the Dolphin, in keeping with the tradition of G.I.Joe sea vehicles being named after animals.
