This site has been created to describe the activities of the Training Ship of the United States Merchant Marine Academy.  Links are provided for midshipmen and faculty to access the engineering and deck operating manuals as well as the ship's documentation.

The Department of Waterfront Activities (DWA) has general management oversight of T/V KINGS POINTER.  DWA also coordinates the maintenance and repair of the vessel, and is responsible for scheduling all ship movements.

 

The Mission of the T/V KINGS POINTER

"To supplement the classroom training at the United States Merchant Marine Academy by providing an operational shipboard platform for use by the academic departments and the Department of Shipboard Training.  The training program is one that will foster leadership, responsibility and accountability through the operation and maintenance of the vessel."

  “To educate and graduate professional officers and leaders of honor and integrity, who are dedicated to serving the economic and defense interests of the United States in our Armed Forces and Merchant Marine, and who will contribute to an intermodal transportation system that effectively ties America together."
