You're right when you look at the definition of the word coastal, but I still think they fit right into your series of vessels, as they were labeled motor launches and motor launches were originally designed for sea/coastal duties (harbour defense and search and rescue)
Lake Tanganyika is the second largest body of fresh water in the world, maximum length is 673 km, maximum width is 72 km and maximum depth is about 1400 meter....this is much deeper than the deepest point in the North Sea or the English Channel....

The model look great again, and the crew figures give an extra dimension to it. In what scale, 1/400 or larger......Are you planning to add a commanding officer in skirt and tattoos?
