| USCGC Healy (2373 words) |
 | USCGC Healy is a new four-season, icebreaking Arctic research vessel with science facilities matching those on the large UNOLS vessels. |
 | Healy was from its inception meant to be operated by the Coast Guard for the academic science community and together with the research and icebreaking capabilities these defined the vessel which was delivered by Avondale Industries to the Coast Guard in late 1999. |
 | All parties agreed that the Healy's coring capabilities in open water over the aft A-frame were amply proven during warm water testing, so the emphasis on Leg 4 was on coring over the starboard, and in ice. |
