Unlike Most USCG vessels visiting, she is tied up at Tall Ships Quay, and not at the dockyard.<br \/>\n&nbsp; <br \/>\nBay Class vessels are stationed mainly in Northeast U.S. and Great Lakes. Although<br \/>\nspecifically desinged for ice breaking duties, they also perform law<br \/>\nenforcement, environmental protection, search &amp; rescue operations<br \/>\nand support for aids to navigation activities. <\/p>\n<p>WTGBs use a low-pressure-air hull lubrication or bubbler system<br \/>\nthat forces air and water between the hull and ice. This system improves<br \/>\n icebreaking capabilities by reducing resistance against the hull,<br \/>\nreducing horsepower requirements.<\/p>\n<div style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEgCSptDT37Qvod6qSIamft0WFZcKfKylbT_lpGZQvxFsIraVmL9nEjj42OvOltCyysX7x5ky0uSoVEg5H0VqVIgYOuK2vQvg39Dg597g49FusjVx3HchPOz1ClAiPaPb3WT321boCdQB2a0\/s1600\/IMG_1384.JPG\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEgCSptDT37Qvod6qSIamft0WFZcKfKylbT_lpGZQvxFsIraVmL9nEjj42OvOltCyysX7x5ky0uSoVEg5H0VqVIgYOuK2vQvg39Dg597g49FusjVx3HchPOz1ClAiPaPb3WT321boCdQB2a0\/s640\/IMG_1384.JPG\" width=\"640\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>USCGC Morro Bay is a Bay Class Icebreaker, Homeported in New London, CT.
