How to order: Please refer to the custom made section in this link The USCGC Cape Hedge was commissioned in the 1970s as a buoy tender for the U.S. Coast Guard. Based in New England, this vessel's main tasks involved maintaining navigational aids, assisting with search-and-rescue operations, and responding to oil spills. Cape Hedge played a vital role in ensuring the safety of vessels navigating the often challenging waters of the Atlantic coast. Its legacy includes participation in several key missions aimed at protecting both the environment and maritime traffic. The Cape Hedge was eventually replaced by modern vessels designed for greater versatility and operational efficiency.
