USCGC Point Swift
From Warlike
USCGC Point Swift (WPB-82312) was an 82-foot (25 m) Point-class cutter constructed at the Coast Guard Yard at Curtis Bay, Baltimore in 1961 for use as a law enforcement and search and rescue patrol boat. Since the Coast Guard policy in 1961 was not to name cutters under 100 feet (30 m) in length, it was designated as WPB-82312 when commissioned and acquired the name Point Swift in January 1964 when the Coast Guard started naming all cutters longer than 65 feet (20 m).
