47-Foot Motor Life Boat

The 47-Foot motor Lifeboat is designed as a first response rescue resource for the Coast Guard in high seas, surf and heavy weather environments. They are built to withstand the most severe conditions at sea and are capable of effecting a rescue at sea even under the most difficult circumstances. They are self-bailing, self-righting, almost unsinkable, and have a long cruising radius for their size. It is the replacement for the aging 44' MLB fleet.

There are (presently) 117 operational, being added to monthly. The total (to be delivered over 5 years) will be about 200.
