The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) is planning to lease/(bareboat charter) the fleet salvage tug USNS Narragansett (T-ATF 167) to a U.S. company that can show that it will use the Narragansett to support offshore salvage facilities. The vessel will be leased on an "As Is, Where Is" basis. The 226 ft., 7,200 hp Narragansett is currently in classification with ABS, is under continuous survey, and has a Certificate of Inspection (COI) issued by the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG).

The vessel will be in use by the U.S.
