A unique experience awaits you
The Monterey Navy League has been invited to tour the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Bertholf — the nation’s newest, state-of-the-art cutter — on Saturday, May 9, 2009.

The USCGC Bertholf, commissioned August 2008, is the flagship of the new National Security Cutter class ship for the Coast Guard. It will depart Alameda in June for its first deployment.

The cost of the tour is $20.00 per person, which includes lunch. Tour attendees must arrange their own transportation to the ship, anchored at Coast Guard Island in Alameda, CA. We will meet for lunch at the Island’s Galley promptly at noon, then will tour the ship at 1 p.m.

Visitors should wear comfortable shoes and clothing, dress in layers because the weather can be unpredictable and be prepared to climb ship ladders during the tour.
