Station Honolulu - Sand Island, HI (Jan. 27) --Sister cutters Assateague (WPB-1337) and Washington (WPB-1331) homeported in Honolulu. The 110-foot Island-class Patrol Boats are a Coast Guard modification of a highly successful British-designed patrol boat. With excellent range and seakeeping capabilities, the Island Class, all named after U.S. Islands, replaced the older 95-foot Cape-class patrol boats. These cutters concentrate on law enforcement - mainly drug and illegal interdiction duties. They are also involved in Port Security, Search and Rescue and Defense Readiness operations. Built in the late 1980s they are equipped with advanced electronics and navigation equipment. USCG photo by PA2 Sarah Foster-Snell
