The 49-foot stern loading utility boat (BUSL) was brought into service in the late 1990s, with the last one commissioned in 2001. They are equipped with an astern mounted A-frame crane that can lift 4,500 pounds. ANT Cape May used a BUSL to hoist thousands of pounds of damaged steel Aids to Navigation (ATON) structures out of the New Jersey Intracoastal Waterway during a nine-day operation that saved an estimated $269,000 in contractor costs.
