USCGC PENOBSCOT BAY (WTGB 107) Happy Holidays to everyone from PENOBSCOT BAY! Special thanks to those who are standing watch onboard to keep the ship safe during this holiday season. It is especially tough duty this year, and I also want to thank the friends and family who are missing their sailors for their sacrifice and support. We couldn't do it without you. THANK YOU!!
USCGC PENOBSCOT BAY (WTGB 107) OK PENOBSCOT BAY sailors - quick question: How far has PBAY ever sailed? We don't usually keep these types of records, so I'm looking to get memories. I'm pretty sure Key West is the farthest South, but what about East, West, North?
USCGC PENOBSCOT BAY (WTGB 107) Cleveland Rocks! PENOBSCOT BAY made it safely to Cleveland this morning right on schedule. Hats off to the crew for their fine work and dedication sailing the ship almost 2,000 miles from New York to Cleveland through an extremely challenging transit!!! Two lakes down, three to go!!
Ahoy and good morning everyone, Just wanted to report that we finished transiting the St. Lawrence Seaway. We did all five locks in 2 days. There has been lots of ice production in the last 72 hours, it's been remarkable how much is here...
USCGC PENOBSCOT BAY (WTGB 107) So just when we think we're done with seas, wind and freezing spray, we get hit with 50+ knots of wind and 6 ft seas on the beam in the river. This is what it takes to remove ice after an event like that. The air temp was around 10 degrees.

Ahoy and good morning everyone, We successfully crossed the Gulf of St. Lawrence with no major issues, although we lost some efficiency due to weather. This is such an isolated place! Getting reliable and accurate weather was somewhat difficult...
Ahoy and good morning everyone, I don't have a lot to report, but we are still doing well on our journey. We've experienced a few delays due to weather, but should still be more or less on schedule...
Ahoy everyone, So far it has been a good trip. Everyone is doing really well. I'd like to say thank you to CDR Flaherty from Sector NY for coming out to say goodbye, and to CGC STURGEON BAY for handling lines and taking some pics of us getting underway...
USCGC PENOBSCOT BAY (WTGB 107) Good Evening everyone, we're headed to the Great Lakes to help with the icebreaking mission this year. I'll be posting regularly to keep you updated on our trip. I hope all is well!
