For over two centuries the U.S. Coast Guard has safeguarded our Nation’s maritime interests in the heartland, in the ports, at sea, and around the globe. We protect the maritime economy and the environment, we defend our maritime borders, and we save those in peril. This history has forged our character and purpose as America’s Maritime Guardian — Always Ready for all hazards and all threats.

Today’s U.S. Coast Guard, with nearly 42,000 men and women on active duty, is a unique force that carries out an array of civil and military responsibilities touching almost every facet of the U.S. maritime environment.

The United States Coast Guard has approved Star-Tech Marine Electronics as an annual Voyage Data Recorder (VDR) and Simplified Voyage Data Recorder (S-VDR) service provider. We are in compliance with the requirements of the Navigation, Vessel and Inspection Circular (NVIC) 8-01, Change 2, Enclosure (5), Section 7.
