History:

The USCGC Cape Wash was a distinguished buoy tender commissioned in the 1970s. Operating along the U.S. East Coast, it performed vital duties such as maintaining navigational buoys, supporting search-and-rescue efforts, and responding to environmental threats. The Cape Wash served as a critical asset to the U.S. Coast Guard, especially in regions with high maritime traffic, where precise navigational markers were essential for safe passage. After serving for many years, Cape Wash was decommissioned and replaced by newer vessels with enhanced capabilities, but its role in the Coast Guard’s operations remains a part of maritime history.
