The OSV Bold is the former Navy vessel, United States Naval Ship (USNS) Bold. Constructed by the Tacoma Boat Building Company of
Tacoma, Washington, as a Tactical Auxiliary General Ocean Survey (T-AGOS) Vessel, the ship was first commissioned in 1989 as the USNS Vigorous.
The vessel was later renamed the USNS Bold and has served on many surveillance missions. The Navy decommissioned the USNS Bold in 2004,
and then transferred the vessel to EPA. EPA converted the vessel to an Ocean Survey Vessel (OSV) to replace EPA's aging OSV Peter W. Anderson.
