    A U.S. Coast Guard Response Boat-Small (RBS) bearing hull number 33143 is moored at a concrete dock with yellow-painted edges. The vessel features a distinctive orange/red inflatable collar (RHIB design) and an aluminum superstructure with navigation equipment.

We wish him a speedy recovery.” (U.S. Coast Guard photo)
