About this winged anchor and ship wheel hexagon
Marine units usually end up ordering two patches — a bright one for dress and a subdued one for the boat. This hexagon skips the second order by starting subdued: grey and dark grey only, with the winged anchor and ship wheel carrying the identity through shape rather than color. The six-sided cut is uncommon in police insignia, so it stands apart even in monochrome.
Adapt it before ordering: rename the header and patrol lines to your unit, add one accent color for a dress version, or swap the ship wheel for a life ring or trident. This page shows a design concept we manufacture to order — your stitch-ready proof arrives 6–12 hours after you order, and nothing is produced until you approve it.

Port patrol patch questions
Is this patch subdued as shown?
Yes. Grey and dark grey only — it works on dark uniforms without drawing the eye. A full-color dress version is available as a separate colorway.
Can the four lettering lines be changed?
Yes. The maritime header, both specialized unit lines and the patrol line restitch to your exact text, or we can drop the repeated line and rebalance the layout.
What backing suits float coats?
Hook-side velcro. Sew a loop panel on the coat and the same patch moves between float coat, jacket and carrier as the shift requires.
Can we add one accent color?
Yes. A single accent — gold, blue or orange — on the anchor or wheel turns this into a dress patch while keeping the same art. Preview it in the markup tool.
How do I request changes to this design?
Use the "mark up this design" tool in the quote form: circle the wheel, pin notes on the lettering, switch colorways. Your marked-up version attaches to the quote automatically.
