RESPONSE BOAT MEDIUM
The
Response Boat Medium is a 45-foot 36,500-pound utility boat used by
the United States Coast Guard. The boats are built by Vigor
Industrial of Kent, Washington and Marinette Marine
Corporation of Marinette, Wisconsin.
These very maneuverable boats have a max
speed of
42.5 knots.
Range: 250 nautical miles at 30 knots.
The
Response Boat Medium can conduct a range of
missions including search-and-rescue,
ports/waterways/coastal security, marine environmental
protection, recreational boat safety, enforcement of
laws and treaties drug and illegal migrant
interdiction.
In the
summer of 2017, the Canadian Coast Guard purchased a
