CCGS John P. Tully is an offshore oceanographic science vessel in the Canadian Coast Guard operating out of Pacific Region at CGS Base Patricia Bay in Sidney, British Columbia. Prior to 1995, the ship was assigned to Fisheries and Oceans Canada. The vessel entered service in June 1985 with the Department of Fisheries and Oceans on the West Coast of Canada. In 1995, the fleets of Fisheries and Oceans and the Canadian Coast Guard were merged under Canadian Coast Guard command and John P. Tully became a Coast Guard vessel.
John P. Tully is 68.9 metres (226 ft 1 in) long overall and 61.7 metres (202 ft 5 in) long between perpendiculars with a beam of 14.5 metres (47 ft 7 in) and a draught of 4.5 metres (14 ft 9 in). The ship has a fully loaded displacement of 1,800 long tons (1,800 t) with a gross tonnage (GT) of 2,021 and a deadweight tonnage (DWT) of 638. The ship has two Deutz 628 geared diesel engines powering three Caterpillar C18 generators driving one controllable-pitch propeller and stern and bow thrusters creating 2,757 kilowatts (3,697 hp). This gives the vessel a maximum speed of 13.5 knots (25.0 km/h). The ship can carry 454.70 m3 (16,058 cu ft) of diesel fuel and has a range of 12,000 nautical miles (22,000 km) at 10 knots (19 km/h).
