Class and type Marine Protector-class coastal patrol boat Builder Bollinger Shipyards, L.L.C. |
The USCGC Sea Fox was the last Marine Protector-class coastal patrol boat to be built. Her home port is Seattle, Washington.
Unlike most cutters in her class she is owned by the United States Navy, although she is staffed by United States Coast Guard personnel. She and her sister ship, the USCGC Sea Devil are employed to protect the Navy's largest submarines, the nuclear-armed Trident class, while in and near their moorings in Puget Sound. The USCGC Sea Dragon and the USCGC Sea Dog guard the submarine base in Kings Bay, Georgia. These four vessels mount an additional gyro-stabilized remotely controlled machine gun.
