All three MRs shall be temporarily moored on foul weather mooring buoys located in Pearl and Shoal Point water areas when directed by the 82 ATRS Commander. The contractor shall be responsible for supporting DoD waterborne missions requiring MR and range patrol boat support. This support requirement shall be directly related to: HURCON directives, DoD ad hoc missions, ACC life support/water survival, shipyard shuttle, watercraft vessel protection, vessel deployments to support ACC/325 FW FPCON directives, and non-DoD mission vessel support up to 40 times per year. This requirement may be directed and tasked by another DoD agency for which the 82 ATRS Watercraft Operations are responsible. The requirement may cause vessels to operate up to 200 nautical miles (NMs) from the Panama City, FL, Sea Buoy. These operations may require more than 24-hour stays away from Tyndall docks.
Contractor is responsible for transportation/boarding/meals during surveillance inspections and shuttling to and from shipyard during haul out periods.
1.9.1. Special Missions. A mission that has specific directives from the mission commander as to where MR(s) or range patrol boat(s) shall be positioned.

1.10.3. Vessel liability. When contract performance involves use of vessels, the contracting officer shall require, as determined by the agency, vessel collision liability and protection and indemnity liability insurance. Watercraft vessel collision liability insurance applies to property of third parties (watercraft, docks, etc.) and protection and indemnity liability applies to personal injury to third parties. The minimum limits of the vessel liability insurance are
$2,000,000 per 120 foot boat (three boats) and $156,000 for the three launch corridor boats.
Therefore the minimum insurance amount is $6,156,000.
1.10.4. Concerning the risk of loss or damage protection for the government-owned watercraft, the government will act as a self-insurer for all five boats and does not require the contractor operators to obtain hull insurance.
