Looking For A Good, Solid Boat? Look No Further!

With the new small boats entering service lately, I've often wondered what it would take to get one of those 41' UTBs that the Coast Guard is starting to retire. For anyone else wondering, Headquarters has provided some feedback:

Disposal of excess Government property is governed by a very strict process that ensures the property is put to the best possible use and the Government is fairly compensated for it. No one in the Coast Guard, at any level, can promise or arrange for disposal of a boat without going through this process. All requests for retired 41 UTB's (or any other Coast Guard vessel) shall be directed to:

Mr. Jeff Beach
Decommissioned Boat Manager
Internal Controls and Asset Management Division (CG-842) U.S. Coast Guard
Headquarters 2100 Second Street, SW Washington, DC 20593-0001
