Astoria Home To Newest USCG Cutter
ASTORIA, OR -- The U.S. Coast Guard commissioned a new Fast Response Cutter, stationed in Astoria. The “David Duren” is the first of its kind in the Pacific Northwest. It replaces previous cutters, built in the 1980s, that were around 110' long. "This one is 154’ long, with an average crew of about 20-24 people. They have a little bit longer endurance, but they also have the strength and the speed, overall, to get out faster," says USCG Petty Officer Steve Strohmaier. It's also outfitted with the latest tech, "The newest technologically advanced ship in the Coast Guard’s fleet. It can do things quicker and more efficiently than cutters in the past that were stationed here." Strohmaier adds, "It’s going to enable them to look further out, see different contacts, use different radios. There’s a whole slew of technological advancements since the cutters that were previously out here."
