Swiftships' Model No. 57-USCG-CD-0798 is a quad-waterjet, diesel 57 Meter, Fast Patrol Boat and is designated as an ocean capable craft.

The 57 Meter USCG-CD is primarily intended to fulfill the patrol, surveillance, search and rescue, drug interdiction, fisheries protection, refugee assistance, environmental and natural resources protection missions and general law enforcement role.
