Cutter fleet

The Cutter fleet refers to a group of vessels used by the United States Coast Guard, specifically designed for various functions like search and rescue, law enforcement, and environmental protection. Cutters are larger than smaller boats and are equipped to operate in open waters for extended periods. They can carry helicopters and have advanced technology for navigation and communication. The Cutter fleet plays a crucial role in safeguarding maritime interests, responding to emergencies, enforcing laws at sea, and protecting marine environments. Each cutter is typically named after a significant historical or geographical figure.
