CCGS Gordon Reid is an offshore fisheries patrol vessel of the Canadian Coast Guard .
Gordon Reid is 50 m (164 ft 1 in) long overall with a beam of 11 m (36 ft 1 in) and a draught of 5.4 m (17 ft 9 in). The vessel has an 879 gross tonnage (GT) and a 257 net tonnage (NT). The ship is powered by four Deutz 628 geared diesel engines driving two controllable pitch propellers and bow thrusters creating 3,580 kW (4,800 hp). The vessel is also equipped with one Mitsubishi 6D14T emergency generator. This gives the ship a maximum speed of 16.5 knots (30.6 km/h). Gordon Reid carries 148.20 m 3 (32,600 imp gal) of diesel fuel , has a range of 2,500 nautical miles (4,600 km) at 12 knots (22 km/h) and can stay at sea for up to 28 days. The patrol vessel has a complement of 14 composed of 6 officers and 8 crew and has 8 spare berths.
Ordered by the Canadian Coast Guard to replace the older R-class cutters in the Western Region, Gordon Reid is used for fisheries patrol and search and rescue . In October 2014, the Russian container ship MV Simushur lost the use of its engines near environmentally sensitive Haida Gwaii . Gordon Reid was the first vessel to try to tow the disabled vessel to keep the container ship from running aground . However, Gordon Reid ' s own engines were not powerful enough. The American ocean-going tugboat Barbara Foss was dispatched from nearby Prince Rupert, British Columbia to tow the disabled Russian vessel. In November 2015, the American-flagged cargo ship North Star lost power while transiting from Anchorage , Alaska to Tacoma , Washington . Gordon Reid was deployed to aid the ship, but North Star managed to get her engines going again and arrived in port without assistance. In October 2020, Gordon Reid rescued two people from the sailboat Second Star after it lost steering in the Pacific Ocean.
