Honor the grit and heroism of Coast Guard rescue history with this detailed graphic magnet featuring USCG Motor Lifeboat 36460 and its proud motto: Semper Paratus — Always Ready. Boldly designed with strong visual lines, this magnet celebrates one of the most rugged and reliable rescue vessels ever to serve on American waters.
Built in 1941 in Curtis Bay, Maryland, and constructed of laminated oak framing, cypress planking, copper sheathing, and a 2,000-lb solid bronze keel, 36460 was engineered for extreme conditions. These legendary self-bailing, self-righting lifeboats could survive 60-foot waves and keep crew safe in watertight compartments. After 35 years of service and multiple restorations, 36460 earned a starring role in The Finest Hours, Walt Disney’s film about the Pendleton rescue. Today, she continues her story as an iconic member of the Michigan Maritime Museum’s fleet.
Printed with crisp detail on a strong magnetic backing, this magnet is a meaningful addition to refrigerators, office spaces, crew lockers, and Coast Guard memorabilia collections. A perfect keepsake for maritime enthusiasts, USCG veterans, museum guests, and anyone who values courage on the water.
