Personal Watercraft Insurance, New USCG Rescue Boat Makes Long Island Sound Safer
Saturday, Jun. 8th 2013 9:45 AM
The Coast Guard acquired a new 45-foot response boat last fall, making the Long Island Sound safer as it replaced an aging utility boat.
Known as the RB-M, this new boat is excellent for rapid response to emergency situations for many reasons. It is a high-speed and self-righting craft used mostly for search and rescue or enforcement of maritime laws. Amazingly, it operates safely even in 12-foot seas – even if facing 55-knot winds.
No doubt this new vessel will enhance the safety of the citizens of Long Island and Connecticut, and any visitors who travel in those waters.
