Description
The Sea Bear was built in 1959 in Massachusetts for use as a pilot boat in New York. She came to the Twin Ports in September 2002. She was made for heavy-duty and hazardous work with features such as a high bulwark for ocean seas, double spray rails, heavy-duty fendering, and reinforced framing for ice breaking. In addition, special pilot safety items such as the towable “Lifesling” recovery system, pilot overboard hoist gear, area floodlighting, DSC / GPS distress electronics, pilot harness anchor clips, and non-icing heated decks all make the pilot’s dangerous job safer.
