The Revenue Cutter Active was a 90 foot, 120 ton schooner which served at New Bedford from her commissioning in 1867 until she was sold in 1875. She was one of the last strictly sail powered cutters built for the Revenue Cutter Service.

From 1964 to 1979 the Station was the homeport of the Reliance class cutter Vigilant. Vigilant was replaced by a Famous class cutter.
The station was a sub-unit of Coast Guard Sector Southeast New England located in Coast Guard District One.
The station was closed in 2003 and its assets were relocated.
