About the Boat: Training aboard:  T/V Maritime Instructor was originally commissioned as a  USCG, Coast Guard cutter of the WPB “Point” class for use in coastal patrol duties. Built by the Coast Guard in 1962, the cutter was christened the USCG Point Divide, WPB 8233, and took up station in Corona Del Mar, California in March 1963. The cutter’s primary mission role was Search and Rescue. Secondary missions included assignments in boating safety, military preparedness, marine environmental response and public relations. As a public relations vehicle, the vessel appeared on television in serial shows such as Baywatch and a CNN documentary’s.

In 1995 the USCG Point Divide was declared surplus to the Coast Guard’s needs and handed over to Seattle Maritime Academy under sponsorship of the U.S. Maritime Administration. Following acquisition by Seattle Maritime Academy the vessel was renamed the Maritime Instructor. T/V Maritime Instructor, is a local ship canal staple that is seen often coming and going up and down the canal, calling in for a Ballard Locks drop by the Captain and crew, trainee’s on board headed out to Shilshole Bay open water training grounds for year round at sea training.  Inquiries Visit:  http://maritime.seattlecentral.edu/
