Description
"Coast Guard Station
on Muskegon Lake"
By Debra and Dave Vanderlaan...
This is the coast guard
station house in Muskegon Michigan
at the Pere Marquette Beach
captured in the summer
under a beautiful blue sky.
The lighthouse can be seen
in the distance
at the end of the pier.
The acronym STANT describes
the unique combination
of a Search and Rescue
Station (STA)
with an Aids to Navigation
Team (ANT).
The crew of STANT Muskegon
is responsible for maintaining
aids to navigation from Frankfort,
Michigan to Michigan City,
Indiana, covering roughly 200 miles
of Lake Michigan�s eastern shoreline.
Within that area,
they are responsible
for all Search and Rescue
and federal maritime
law enforcement from Stony Lake
to Mona Lake Michigan.
The resources used
for Search and Rescue include
a thirty foot Utility Boat
for open water rescue
and sixteen foot Skiff
for shallow water response.
For servicing buoys,
a forty-nine foot BUSL
(Buoy Utility Stern Loading)
is employed for large buoys
and for smaller aids,
a twenty-three foot TANB
(Trailerable Aids to Navigation Boat),
or the same sixteen foot Skiff
may be used.
