USCGC Joseph Doyle (WPC-1133) is the United States Coast Guard's 33rd Template:Sclass2- cutter. She was completed, and transferred to Coast Guard, in Key West, for her acceptance trials, on March 21, 2019.[1][3] She was commissioned on June 8, 2019,[2] and the first of a second cohort of cutters commissioned in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The first batch of six cutters were commissioned there in 2015 and 2016.
Design
Like her sister ships, Joseph Doyle is designed to perform search and rescue missions, port security, and the interception of smugglers.[4] She is armed with a remotely-controlled, gyro-stabilized 25 mm autocannon, four crew served M2 Browning machine guns, and light arms. She is equipped with a stern launching ramp, that allows her to launch or retrieve a water-jet propelled high-speed auxiliary boat, without first coming to a stop. Her high-speed boat has over-the-horizon capability, and is useful for inspecting other vessels, and deploying boarding parties.
The crew's drinking water needs are met through a desalination unit.[5] The crew mess is equipped with a television with satellite reception.

Namesake
In 2010, Charles "Skip" W. Bowen, who was then the United States Coast Guard's most senior non-commissioned officer, proposed that all 58 cutters in the Sentinel class should be named after enlisted sailors in the Coast Guard, or one of its precursor services, who were recognized for their heroism.[6][7] The Coast Guard chose Joseph Doyle would be the namesake of the 33rd cutter.[8] Doyle started serving as the keeper of the Charlotte, New York Life Saving Station, in 1878, where he became one of the most admired keepers of the United States Lifesaving Service.[9]

Although the cutter is far from luxurious, its crew quarters provide slightly more room and comfort than earlier models, with larger staterooms, more toilets and sinks, greater storage space, and DirecTV access in the mess areas.

Previously designated to be named the Coast Guard Cutter Sentinel, the cutter Bernard C. Webber will be the first of the service's new 153-foot patrol cutters. Coast Guard Commandant Admiral Thad Allen approved the change of the cutter's name to allow this class of vessels to be named after outstanding enlisted members who demonstrated exceptional heroism in the line of duty. This will be the first class of cutters to be named exclusively for enlisted members of the Coast Guard and its predecessor services.

On July 11, 1878 he was appointed keeper of the Charlotte, New York Life Saving Station. As keeper, he secured the appointment of a paid crew and became known as one of the most distinguished surfmen attached to the U.S. Life-Saving Service. His efficiency upon the occasions of shipwreck was always notable, but during 1878 he achieved two rescues so impressive that he was awarded the Gold Lifesaving Medal.
