Shore Patrol Police Patch — Order This Lighthouse and Wave Design
Design S1750A at a glance
A custom-cut patch with a navy merrowed edge, showing a lighthouse rising above an ocean wave, the whole scene set on a starburst. Four lettering lines frame it — the department name, an established year, a shore patrol unit line and a civic line — stitched in navy, silver, maroon and white. It is a waterfront emblem that still reads as municipal police insignia.

About this shore patrol lighthouse design
Waterfront officers often wear the same patch as street patrol, and nothing on the sleeve tells a boater who is coming alongside. This design fixes that with one maritime scene: the lighthouse marks the coast, the wave marks the water, and the starburst behind them keeps the badge-like presence a police patch needs. Maroon as the fourth thread color sets it apart from the navy-and-gold palette most departments already wear.
Order it as shown or adapt it: set your department name and city in the lettering, update the established year, swap maroon for your unit color, or add a boat or unit number to the shore patrol line. 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.

Who orders this design
Police marine units, waterfront patrol details and lakeshore beat officers order this lighthouse patch for boat crews and dock patrols. Coastal towns that already show a lighthouse on the city seal often adopt it as the department's shoulder patch outright. Most orders pair sew-on sleeve patches with a velcro run for flotation vests.

Shore patrol police patch questions
Can our department and city names replace the lettering?
Yes. All four lines restitch to your wording — department name, established year, unit line and civic line — and the 4-hour mockup shows each one in place.
Can the lighthouse be redrawn to match our local light?
Yes. Send a photo of the lighthouse your town is known for and we redraw it over the wave at no art charge, keeping the starburst behind it.
Which backing holds up best on flotation vests?
Hook-side velcro. It mates with the loop panels on most float coats and lets officers move one set of patches between vest and jacket.
Will the wave and starburst detail hold at sleeve size?
Yes, from about 3 inches tall. Below that the proof simplifies the wave crest slightly so the stitching stays clean.
How do I mark up changes to this design?
Open the markup tool in the quote form, circle the lighthouse or any lettering line, pin notes and try other colorways. The marked version attaches to your quote.
