The 52-foot Motor Life Boats have documented unmatched seakeeping abilities, but they also have the endurance to reach the 200 mile Exclusive Economic Zone and the towing power to assist any member of the Pacific Northwest commercial fishing fleet, which makes Oregon and Washington the ideal home for this historic asset. The parameters in which the 52-foot MLBs can operate and respond in allow the river bars and ports in the Pacific Northwest to remain open, in almost any normal sea and weather

WORLDWIDE ENGINEERING 🌍 on Instagram: "The 47-foot MLB is the standard lifeboat of the United States Coast Guard (USCG), known for its incredible capability to weather hurricane force winds, heavy seas, and extreme conditions. What sets it apart is its unique feature – if the boat should capsize, it self-rights in less than ten seconds with all equipment fully functional. This remarkable self-righting ability ensures the safety of the crew even in the most challenging situations. (#engineering
