USNS Maury (T-AGS 66) recently responded to a call from the U.S. Coast Guard to render assistance to a civilian catamaran that was unable to continue on its own power in the Atlantic Ocean. The crew aboard USNS Maury sent an engineering team to provide assistance and were able to successfully repair the distressed vessel.
