No one has the amphibious/waterborne capabilities that SEALs have developed over the years.
Marine Recon are just as capable as those pretty boys and don’t need to write a book every time they take a shite

did 4 yrs in 1st Force Recon at camp Der Mar back in the early 90's long story short did a westpac on the USS Tarawa anyway they had a SEAL team on board, dont remember which one but they woke up a couple of us up in the middle of the night to go to the back of the ship (somewhere in middle of the damn pacific) they had tied off a zodiac and about 100+ yards of the stern and where basically kneeboarding in the wake
just remember thinking "these MFers are truly crazy"
yes i did it....
We did a lot of training with them and i have nothing but respect but they have a more broad spectrum of mission types and thats not debatable
guess you could say Recon is Marines first and specops second. SEALs are specops first, last, and all through the middle

Marine Recon has a completely different mission. They do not have any of the underwater demolition and infiltration skills. So no, they aren’t “just as capable” because they have completely different capabilities.
