Safety/Scout/Guard Vessel Statement:
The Safety/Scout/Guard Vessel listed as working on this project may at times work on other projects and for other developers. We will try to keep the list updated, but occasionally the vessels switch from one project to another overnight to back each other up for short periods of time and this will not be reflected on the website.
