The USCG 65′ small harbor tug is a class of fifteen tugs used by the Coast Guard for search and rescue, law enforcement, ATON work and light icebreaking. The tugs are capable of breaking 18 inch of ice with propulsion ahead and 21inch of ice backing and ramming. They were designed with steel hulls to replace the 64-foot wooden-hulled tugs that had been in service since the 1940s. USCGC Bollard (WYTL-65614) operated in Long Island Sound and north to Narragansett Bay. Her homeport was New Haven, Connecticut. The Pandant was home ported in Boston. Photo is b/w and includes date and description on back. Clear, close view, great detail. (VG+). $44.
