COASTAL BUOY TENDER PETIT
VESSEL TYPE:
175 FT. Coastal Buoy
Tender
ENGINE:
CAT 3406
LOCATION:
Ketchikan, Alaska
CENTER SECTION OVERHAUL PER US COAST GUARD SPECIFICATIONS
In 1996, the US Coast Guard commissioned the CGC Anthony Petit, a coastal
buoy tender that serves in a variety of missions ranging from navigation aid,
search & rescue, law enforcement, marine safety inspections and ice
breaking operations. The 175 foot CGC joined the Coast Guard’s 17th District
located in Ketchikan, Alaska in November 1999.
The CGC was built with state of the art electronics and navigation systems
including a dynamic & global positioning system and electronic chart
displays. This allows the vessel to maneuver and position aids more accurately
and efficiently. The CGC is one of fourteen buoy tenders that have been
equipped with Z-drive propulsion units that are designed to independently
rotate 360 degrees and give the vessel unmatched maneuverability. Older
buoy tenders were built with standard propeller and rudder configurations.
January 2013, the CGC Anthony Petit was in need of some major overhaul
work to the ships three diesel generator CAT 3406 engines. The Coast Guard
called Bay Diesel to perform the engine work. Bay Diesel sent three of their
veteran technicians to Alaska to dismantle, diagnose, rebuild and test the
ships service diesel generators. The scope of work performed by Bay Diesel’s
technicians consisted of rebuilding several turbos, upgrading the cylinder
packs, replacing the lower end bearings’ and reconditioning the cam shaft.
The whole job from start to finish took less than a month to complete. The
engines were tested and confirmed under USCG specification for proper
operation.
