About this anchor and crossed oars sheriff design
Sheriff's marine units patrol lakes, reservoirs and rivers, and their patch should look like it belongs on the water. The anchor and crossed oars are the plainest nautical signs there are, and the rising sun suggests the early starts of a boating-season shift. Royal blue and gold keep the design tied to the office's main insignia while the motifs make the unit unmistakable.
Make it your unit's: change the callout to Lake Patrol, Dive Team or Boating Safety, put your office name on the top line, or add a star to tie it back to the department badge. 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.

Sheriff marine unit patch questions
Can this design be made waterproof?
Yes. Order it as a PVC patch and it shrugs off spray, sun and fuel. The anchor, oars and sun translate cleanly to molded PVC in the same colors.
Can we change the callout to Dive Team or Lake Patrol?
Yes. All three lettering lines restitch to your wording. Your mockup shows the new callout within 4 hours of the quote request.
What backing works on float coats?
Hook-side velcro, if your float coats have loop panels. Otherwise sew-on is the most secure option for outer shells.
Can the motto be removed or changed?
Yes. Swap it for your own motto or your founding year, or leave it out entirely and we rebalance the layout on the proof.
Can a sheriff star be added?
Yes. A small star can sit on the anchor crown or the rising sun to tie the patch to your office's badge, added at no art charge.
