The Australia-based global shipbuilding company, Austal, has floated the first Trinidad and Tobago Coast Guard (TTCG) Cape Class vessel into the water.
The Cape Class Patrol Boat will magnify the country’s border protection capabilities along with the existing Coast Guard fleet.

The Cape Class is a 58 metre all aluminium monohull patrol boat distinctively built to combat the full range of maritime security threats. The vessel has a long 4,000 nautical mile range and 28-day patrol cycle with a crew of up to 22.
The vessel also supports two high-speed 7.3-metre Rigid Hull Inflatable Boats used for intercepting other vessels.
