A Timelessly Designed Vessel with a Legendary History

The Admiral’s barge was designed by Ed Monk.

The Philadelphia Naval Shipyard built the vessel in February 1957 to the plans of the 50′ Area Command Cutter. Made of oak with double planked Alaskan Cedar sides and mahogany super structure. The original design included a 50-caliber machine gun

on the forecastle.

Extensively rebuilt from 2015 to 2018, all systems brought up to current Coast Guard safety standards. Of the three vessels that were built to these specifications, this is the last remaining example.
